Madu River Safari
Madu River Safari
Explore the sights and sounds of the lush mangrove forest as you discover the secrets of the Madu River, on an exciting boat safari. In the Southern region of Sri Lanka lies the Galle district. The Madu River is very rich in biodiversity. Witness its tropical sceneries and calming atmosphere, the river is dazzled with approximately 15 islets scattered along the river and mangrove forests that are home to over 300 species of fauna from colourful birds like woodpeckers and king fishers to creepy crocodiles and more!
A gentle boat cruise along this river will keep you entertained as you watch for crocodiles or water monitors as they slither beneath the murky surface or as the endemic birds of prey hover over you! En-route, you’ll visit a small island called Koth Duwa with its beautiful temple and statue of the Buddha.
