Your adventure begins with a warm welcome at Bandaranayke International Airport, where your private driver greets you and whisks you away along the scenic southern coastline. As you arrive in Bentota, you’ll check into a handpicked beachfront hotel and immediately feel the calming embrace of the Indian Ocean. The evening is yours to unwind, perhaps with a stroll on the sand or by simply soaking in your first Sri Lankan sunset.
The following day invites you to explore the tranquil beauty of the Madu River. Glide through lush mangroves on a guided boat safari, stopping at a cinnamon island to learn about Sri Lanka’s spice heritage and enjoy a natural fish spa. Afterwards, you’ll visit the Kosgoda Turtle Hatchery, where you can witness conservation in action and meet adorable rescued baby turtles. To end the day, treat yourself to an optional Ayurvedic massage, the perfect way to relax after a day of discovery.
On your third day, you’ll journey to Hikkaduwa, a lively beach town renowned for its vibrant coral reefs and relaxed vibe. En route, you’ll stop at a local moonstone mine, gaining insight into the region’s gemstone industry. Once in Hikkaduwa, the day is yours to snorkel among colorful fish, feast on fresh seafood, or simply lounge beneath swaying palms, letting the gentle rhythm of the waves lull you into serenity.
The next morning, a short coastal drive brings you to the historic city of Galle. Here, you’ll step back in time as you wander the cobblestone streets of the UNESCO-listed Galle Fort. Marvel at the colonial architecture, explore charming boutiques and cafés, and snap photos by the iconic lighthouse. As evening falls, you’ll settle into a boutique hotel inside or near the fort, savoring the unique blend of history and modern comfort.
Your journey continues as you head further south to Mirissa, checking into a stylish beach resort. The day is free for you to enjoy as you please—swim in the turquoise waters, sunbathe on the golden sands, or sip a fresh coconut while gazing at the horizon. For those seeking extra indulgence, an optional beach BBQ or spa session can be arranged, ensuring your relaxation is complete.
Day six is all about adventure and awe. Rise early for an unforgettable whale watching tour off the coast of Mirissa, where you may spot majestic blue whales and playful dolphins in their natural habitat (best experienced from November to April). Later, visit the famous Coconut Tree Hill, a scenic spot perfect for capturing panoramic views and memorable photos as the sun sets over the Indian Ocean.
As your trip nears its end, you’ll return to Colombo, Sri Lanka’s bustling capital. Enjoy a guided city tour that highlights the best of Colombo, including the serene Independence Square, the historic Gangaramaya Temple, and the vibrant Galle Face Green. This is your chance to experience the city’s dynamic blend of tradition and modernity before your final night in Sri Lanka.
On your last day, savor a leisurely breakfast and enjoy some free time for shopping or last-minute sightseeing in Colombo. When it’s time, your private driver will transfer you to the airport, ensuring a smooth and comfortable departure. You’ll leave Sri Lanka with a heart full of memories from an unforgettable journey along its spectacular south coast.
