Product Info

Begin your tour at the historic Dutch Fort, built by the Portuguese in 1628 and strengthened by the Dutch in 1638. Stroll along its coral-stone walls and bastions overlooking the lagoon for scenic views and a taste of colonial history.

Next, head to the Batticaloa Lighthouse, built in 1913, and enjoy beautiful views of the lagoon and ocean. Then, explore the massive Batticaloa Lagoon, Sri Lanka’s largest, by boat, gliding past mangroves and fishing boats. Listen for the legendary “singing fish” near the iconic Kallady Bridge, built in 1924 during British rule. This historic iron bridge connects the city and leads to Kallady Beach for relaxed walks.

Wander through bustling local markets filled with fresh seafood, spices, tropical fruits, and handicrafts. Visit colorful Hindu temples showcasing Dravidian architecture, along with churches and mosques reflecting the city’s harmonious diversity.

The tour reveals Batticaloa’s resilient spirit, blending Tamil, Muslim, and Sinhalese influences.
