Bentota River boat Safari
Mangroves, a cinnamon island, and monitor lizards, all within an hour of the coast.
A shorter, easier alternative to the Madu River trip: the Bentota Ganga winds through mangrove forest past a small cinnamon-growing island, with a good chance of monitor lizards and kingfishers along the banks. Easy to fit into a half day.
What's included
- A stop at a small cinnamon-growing island
- Monitor lizards and kingfishers along the banks
- Shorter than the Madu River trip — good for a half day
- Easy to combine with a beach morning in Bentota
Day by day
A couple of hours on the river
Morning or afternoon boat departure, roughly two hours through the mangroves and the cinnamon island stop, back on land after.
