Bird Watching


Many migratory bird species could be seen in this area, along with resident Sea-eagles and hawks that nest here, peacocks, and waterfowls etc.The Walawe river is beautiful and tranquil during dusk.But if your objective is bird watching better get up bright and early.There are trees that line the river that bats and cranes take shifts in inhabiting! Bats dangle from edges of branches like huge black buckets and cranes move in when the bats move out in search of food by dusk, dotting the tree with milky white spots.

Bio Diversity


This potential tourism area lays close and parallel to the southern coastal belt. This location is an ideal place to study about mangroves. Scenic beauty of this place is very high and geographically important as this is the place where Walawe river meets sea. On historical aspects, Godawaya is regarded as one of the ancient Naval base and a sea port. With all those aspects this could be perhaps the most important and scenic place in Hambantota District with rich bio-diversity.
