It’s been an amazing experience! It was so relaxing, the lake was for us only. We just ran into a fisherman during our 2h kayaking trip! Lahiru is really nice, cheerful and a wonderful guide. Has lots of things to share about the nature and the surroundings towns around the lake. Good jokes. The experience is really worth it! It is 2,5h kayaking across this huge lake for 4000lk which is affordable taking into consideration the duration of the activity with a private guide. We got to saw tons of bats sleeping hanging from the trees. Never saw them like this before. Really worth it! Beautiful landscapes and a super relaxing experience enjoying the nature. It’s a different activity to do besides surfing and scuba diving! You should book this activity with them! @mariali_26

A family-style traditionally-operated ecotour on Rathgama Lake, which is a large lagoon. There are pontoon boats and kayaks to choose from, and excursions of various lengths to match your appetite for the experience. They provide information on the flora and fauna one encounters in the way. It is possible to glimpse rare animals at times, like monkeys. My particular trip featured the birds. The hosts are very friendly and warm. It is worth a long visit.

Had an amazing experience with Hikkaduwa lagoon safari and adventure kayaking. Best place to kayak in the down south. There were so many beautiful views and scenarios in the lagoon. Safety also good. They provide a friendly service with good guidance. I think everyone should try it at least once in their life time.

A great experience from the beginning till the end.. a warm welcome from the guide as well as his family.. Started off the day very nervous as i have never been on kayaking before but now cant wait to go back cuz of the comfort provided, and for sure will be back. kind and friendly guide, he also took amazing pictures that we appreciate a lot..and the tour ended with a nice warm Tea from that lovely auntie..highly recommend , safe and comfortable.Thank you for the amazing time.

From the warm welcome by the guide and his family to the comforting kayaking experience, the journey was fantastic from start to end. It is like a 2.5 hour adventure around the lagoon with the friendly guide. Though initially nervous, the kind and friendly guide made the day enjoyable, providing knowledge of the trees, birds and the ancient temple, capturing amazing pictures, and the tour concluded with a delightful warm tea. Highly recommend for a safe and comfortable kayaking adventure. Thank you for the amazing time, Lagoon Safari!

If you are up for an adventure and loads of fun memories, this is the place for you. Wonderful guided Kayaking experience with extremely friendly people. No previous experience with Kayaking is required, he will basically train you from the scratch. Breathtaking scenery in the lagoon. Every penny you pay is worth it. Fun guaranteed... 💯🚣🍃🏖️🌊

A massive thank you to Lahiru and his family for taking my friend and I fishing on the lagoon last night. It was a beautiful evening, and they ever cooked up the fish I caught! Also the photos taken during the activity are so special. We can’t wait to visit again some day!

Went for Kayaking to catch the sunset, overall experience was good. The best part of the ride was catching the sunset and kayaking under two big trees. Lagoon water was clean and clear, you can even have a bath there. The hosts are very friendly and have good customer service and they give their best. PS: they don't provide waterproof carrying bags.

We rode SUPs, but there are also kayaks. I'm very glad I found this place. Quiet lake, beautiful locations, and it turned out that you can also swim. in the lake just below about a meter there is very warm water, an amazing fact. Lahiru is a pleasant and cheerful person, unobtrusive, speaks good English. I advise you to check it out

It was an amazing experience, to go on a kayak for the first time and I’m so glad we chose Hikkaduwa Lagoon Safari and Adventure Kayaking for that. The guide was super friendly and he showed us the most beautiful sceneries. He even captures really nice pictures during the whole tour! Also, I have to mention that it was very budget friendly. Highly recommend this place for anyone who wants to try kayaking!

It was a really great experience. It can be introduced as the best place for kayaking. Also we appreciate your knowledge and humanity. It's new experience for us. Safety also good. I'm glad i chose this place to have this experience. Highly recommend this place for anyone who wants to try kayaking. Thnk you very much lagoon safari!!!!!

Just PERFECT! So grateful for this amazing experience. This is a wonderful family business where you can take your time to learn about the area, and feel so warm and welcomed once you entered their home. I did the kayak tour. Our guide took us to the lake and showed us many beautiful details, story and biodiversity around. We could even swim in the lake (so warm). Later he took us to a natural fishing harbor and climbed to a lookout spot. (By the way, he took many photos and videos) so I love that we even share the photos together. At the end, his family served me and my husband some tea and had a wonderful chat. Made my Hikkaduwa weekend fabulous !

My safari with adventure kayaking Hikkaduwa was amazing! ,😍❤️. We went on the 2nd of December 2022. We had a very good time, and excellent guide, great food, and nice accommodation. I saw awesome wildlife during the trip. I had fun with my family! I highly recommend to book a safari with him, I can't wait to go on My next safari with him :) Thank you so much Lahiru.. ❤️

I and my friends suddenly book a Kayaking Tour with Lahiru and did a morning Kayaking tour. We saw different birds specially kingfisher, blackhooded Oriole and huge bats. Huge water monitor. Very beautiful lagoon views. Unforgivable experience. It was my 1st kayaking experience and it was the best. Hope to visit again with my family. Highly recommend to everyone who plan to visit south side. Good luck

Had an awesome experience kayaking in the evening. Unfortunately we got late reaching there and it was raining, but the host made a special arrangement for us with a short tour. He even offered us coffee and changing facility. Want to visit again sometime for the full tour.

A rare gem! Hikkaduwa Lagoon Safari was the highlight of our trip to southern Sri Lanka. Lahiru is an expert guide and he shared his knowledge on the local fauna and flora including mangrove ecosystem. He helped us to see many rare birds, reptiles and lagoon wildlife. From the start, Lahiru communicated very clearly and ensured that we had the best safari experience. Lahiru and his family warmly welcomed us and even served us tea at the end of safari. The tour was reasonably priced and offers great value for money. Our teenage kids thoroughly enjoyed the tour and the opportunity to row the boat. We highly recommend Hikkaduwa Lagoon Safari for any nature lover and a supporter of ecotourism. Thank you Lahiru!

I visited this place today… Great service! Very kind staff, and the guide was pleasant and knowledgeable, he was kind enough to carefully explain in detail about the different mangroves and different kind of birds here, we spotted eagles , huge population of bats as we went deep inside the lagoon! I recommend this place for anybody who wants have a safe kayaking experience . They have boat rides too.

It was one of our best program in Sri Lanka, highly recommended. If you like nature, you will love this exciting lagoon safari. In a beautiful surroundings you can see animals and plants with interesting comments. Thank you for the experiance

Had an amazing time with Lahiru and his Father on the private sunrise lagoon safari. We were picked up from our hostel by TukTuk at 6am and taken to the lagoon before setting off to see many native animals and the sunrise. Would highly recommend, my partner and I loved it! Thank you :)

Did an evening lagoon tour today and I absolutely loved it, so peaceful and quiet, it was really enjoyable! We have seen lots of different birds, varans, flying foxes and a variety of plants, everything was well explained by our lovely tour guide and I feel like I have learned quite a lot on this tour! Absolutely recommended for everyone who loves nature and wildlife :)

Hade a wonderfully relaxing morning paddling around this beautiful lagoon. Feet in the water watching the wildlife. Thank you so much to the father and son paddlers. Word of advice take a hat or umbrella on sunny days, we went on an overcast day with spots of rain and it was perfect. Highly recommend 👌 👍

We had a lovely afternoon paddling around the lagoon, the owner speaks English very well and is full of interesting information about the plants and animals around us. A very calm and peaceful environment, loved it. Highly recommended 👌

Great experience, highly recommend. We’ve got all tips for our kayaking trip to see the most interesting places
