    Beautiful Lagoon
    The shoreline is dotted with resorts which you can book, it is easily accessible by road near the town of Balapitiya. The lake has 18 small islands on one there is a Buddhist temple, other inhabited by people who demonstrate how to remove bark of the tree to make cinnamon, there is a fish farm where for a small price you can get small fish to nibble away the dead skin on your feet. King Fisher and monkey can be seen all around, locals use the lagoon for shrimp farming, a boat ride around the lake is a must.

    Nice place to visit
    This motor boat tour is not exactly cheap but still worthwhile to take. Especially when you are somewhere near this lake; we went there by tuk-tuk from Beruwala. This is not comparable to the river tour on the Bentota river or one of the smaller rivers. Much less animals to spot, but here you can see the bald eagles. Dont take this boat tour if you really want to ride through mangroves as they do a passage of maybe 30 meters on this lake only; for a true mangrove tour go to Aluthgama and get a tour on the small river next to Bentota river. Anyway, this lake tour has been extremely relaxing and we enjoyed every minute.
