Varied activities are possible in and around Batticaloa, though most of them involve travel from the town to nearby towns/cities.
The historically inclined can explore the Batticaloa Fort and lighthouse or farther from the town, explore the ancient city of Polonnaruwa, especially the Gal Vihara. The Digvapi Dagoba in Ampara is also one of the important Buddhist shrines.
Nature lovers can explore the beaches, or watch the sun rising over the ocean with the backdrop of the Fort. The Kalkudah-Passikudah beaches offer sandy and shallow shorelines.
Adventure seekers have the option of diving and snorkelling in the waters off Batticaloa or further north near Pigeon Island and Nilaveli. Surfing enthusiasts can travel to Arugam Bay for the most known surfing beaches in Sri Lanka. |
