Paradise of Dolphis
In Sri Lankan context, there are some dolphins and
whale species are living around Indian Ocean. Near to the kalpitiya peninsula
there are two common dolphin species can be seen, namely Bottle nosed Dolphin (Tursiops truncates) and Spinner Dolphin
(Stenella longirostris) addition to
these dolphin species there are some whale species also present near to the
Kalpitiya peninsula. With the incensement of the tourism activities in
Kalpitiya peninsular as the newly establish tourism zone by the Sri Lanka
Government, the huge tourist attraction goes to Dolphin and whale watching
tourist activity.All around the year is not suitable for those
activities. Because some time period the wave condition is not good for boat
riding, with that reason the kalpitiya tourism zone is busy with the season.
I had hand-on experience with Paradise of Dolphins.if you willing to get this experience , you are warmly welcome to God's Miracle Peninsular.
