  • We are coming with our vehicle and drive do you offer accomodation? If so can you recommend- Can we swim with the turtles and what sort of activities are there around? Further do you offer beach umbrellas and chairs are they free for beach use

    No driver accommodation provided, We do arrange beach umbrellas and chairs free of charge, sea is swimmable but to find turtles you have to drive towards to Hikkaduwa.
