Ballooning

Explore the natural beauty of the Island in a hot air Balloon. View the elephants in their natural habitat without violating their privacy, fly over the placid lakes or get a bird's eye view of the Sigiriya Rock or a historical ruined city without tampering with the landscape. We call it "Soft Tourism". Witness our ancient lakes, gigantic ruins with a history of 2500 years or more,forests with its wild life from soaring hights!

Ballooning is available in the Island with tour operators such as Red Dot Tours and they offer value for money. The Red Dot has merged with Adevnture Centre Asia which is the leading balloon operator in the island.Their prime concern bein safety, the balloon rides are conducted by a team with a number of years of experience. Many ballooning flights originate mainly in the culturul triangle, taking-off close to Dambulla.A varied options are available such as group bookings for 14-16 people and luxury, wedding and chartered flights. The success of Hot Air Ballooning largely depends on weather conditions, therefore the ideal season is earmarked from October to April. The packages offered are attractive and reasoble offering the most spectacuar aerial view of the cultural sites viz Polonnaruwa, Sigiriya, Dambulla.. the wildife parks Yala National Park, Udawalawe National Park, the south coast , the central hills and many more. Packages are available for a time span of 3-4 hrs, sufficient to admire the vista of the island without interruption.

Canoeing & Kayaking

Sri Lanka has an abundance of rivers, lagoons, reservoirs etc which provides the relaxing setting for canoeing or kayaking.The Kalu Ganga which flows from central hills snakes its way to the west coast town of Kalutara and a canoe/kayak ride on this river is a chance to see the banks which are dotted by rare fauna and flora. The many reservoirs in the island mainly the Samanalawewa reservoir in the Sabaragamuwa province ( in Belihul Oya) has hotels which provide canoes and kayaks and a guide on request. Sri Lanka Canoeing & Kayaking

The sport of kayaking is two fold as a kayak ride on a river, reservoir, sea or lagoon is a relatively relaxing form of recreation but another facet of kayaking is white water kayaking which is an adrenalin fuelingactivity.This is a relatively new sport around the world rated as the epitome of adventure sports, it involves descending a stream as it drops over waterfalls and boulders. Can you handle 700 ft waterfalls? That's what we can offer you. We do have lower ranged waterfalls with the equal measure of breathtaking scenery for the faint hearted.
