We use a catamaran (constructed from two canoes connected to a deck/platform for seating, standing, and storing belongings—no motor engine involved, with a rider to paddle the catamaran). You can relax on the deck before the activity begins, enjoying the scenery with views of both Sigiriya and Pidurangala Rocks. I will share stories about the history of Sigiriya and Pidurangala, including their occupation by King Kashyapa (473-491 AD) and monks. Additionally, you can observe around 40 different bird species and their behaviors.
I will provide the following:
• Life Jacket - ‘safety first’
• Binoculars
• Bird Guide Book
• Fresh fruit juice
• Biscuits
I will be co-hosting this experience with Thusitha, who has over 15 years of experience.

We are using a catamaran and you can sit on the deck before starting the activity. Up to 6 members can sit comfortably on the deck. I will be providing life jackets for your safety.
I will tell you the stories about the history behind Sigiriya and Pidurangala when those places were occupied by the King Kashyapa (473-491 AD) and also by the monks. Pidurangala was the mein temple in 5th C.AD therefore a lot of activities happened in between Sigiriya and Pidurangala. We can discuss those as well while enjoying the vibe. Also you can observe about 40 water-birds along with their behaviours. We can take a note or list down their names by looking in the bird guide book.
The scenery is the main attraction of the boat ride. It is really beautiful!
