Sri Lanka's second whale watching season in the northern summer

7/25/2018

0 Comments

 
In yesterday's blog post we mentioned, that besides peak season in April there is a second whale watching season in Mirissa at Sri Lanka's south coast from July till September. However during roughly the same period, starting in May and lasting till October, Sri Lanka's main destination for whal watchers is Trincomalee at the northeastern coast of the island. Though there are fewer blue whales than during Mirissa's whale season from November till April, chances are quite good to observe the largest creatures that have ever existed on earth. However, at both places there is no blue whale guarantee during northern hemisphere summer months, and there is no guarantee, either, that boats will leave for whale watching on any given day. So better check in advance by contacting your hotel.

view to the western part of Kirinda Beach
In recent years, Kirinda Beach in the very east of Sri Lanka’s Southern Province has deceloped into a new holiday destinations. A wide range of accommodation is available now. Several high-standard hotels have modern pools and are situated at the beach front. The popularity of Kirinda is not surprising. It not only offers nice sandy beaches but it’s a perfect starting point for safaris in Yala and Bundala National Park. Both of them are quite as near as from Tissamaharama, the tradtional starting point, and even nearer than from Kataragama, which has been the traditional alternative to Kataragama. Of these three headquaters for safari enthusiasts, Kirinda is the only one at the seashore. So not surprisingly, more and more holiday makers, particualrly families, fall in love with Kirinda, which offers both wildlife excitement and beach relexation. Kirinda in the very east of Hambantota District has a dry climate that differs much from the seasons of Sri Lanka’s southwest coast beach resorts in Galla District. There is much less annual precipitation in Kirinda, and the dry season falls into the northern hemisphere summer months, which are monsoon in the area of Bentota and Hikkaduwa.

Sinnakarachchi Lagoon of Nilaveli Beach

3/2/2018

Sinnakarachchi Lagoon of Nilaveli Beach
Sinnakarachchi is the name of the lagoon of Nilaveli. It's situated to the north of Trincomalee. The famous holiday destination Nilaveli Beach is a 7.5 km long and 1.5 km wide spit of land in between the ocean and this Sinnakarachchi Lagoon, which opens to the sea north of Nilaveli, just below the bridge connecting the villages of Irakkakandi and Kumpurupiddi. Actually, the former village is also namegiving to the lagoon of Nilaveli, as Sinnakarachchi Lagoon is sometimes called Irakkakandi Lagoon. The mouth of the lagoon near Irakkakandi village is not far away from the maritime National Park of Pigeon Island. Boat tours to all maritime places of interest near Nilaveli - Pigeon Island, Coral Garden plus Red Rock, and Sinnakarachchi Lagoon - are offered by the Nilaveli Tourist Boat Services Cooperative Society Limited, which is a registered body of boat owners in and around Nilaveli. They also organize dolphin and whale watching tours and deep sea fishing. Their office is at the beach site of Nilaveli.

Sinnakarachchi Lagoon has two separate major arms, covering 780 hectares altogether. The main part behind Nilaveli Beaches stretches 9.5 km to the south in a slightly curved way. An even more curved northern arm stretches 5 km inland. The calm lagoon, which is connected with the ocean only by a small natural canal, is used as a sheltered anchorage for fishing boats.

With a maximum depth of 2 m, Sinnakaracchi Lagoon is fairly shallow and its water is more than brackish, actually it is categorized hypersaline. At several places along the lagoon's shores, crystallization of salt can occur during the dry season naturally. However, due to ist high salinity, salt pans for salt production were developed additionally, similar to those in Puttalam Lagoon at the west coast. Nilaveli Beach holiday makers interested in seeing salines, however, should travel 2 km further north to Periyakarachchi Lagoon near Vallipunam, where more salt pans can be seen, very close to the main road to Pulmoddai (B 424).

Due to ist mangrove swamps, seagrass beds and inter-tidal mudflats, Sinnakarachchi Lagoon is an important natural habitat of Sri Lanka's Eastern Province, particularly for waterbirds. However, the eco-system is threatend by the development of new aquaculture, whereas small subsistence fishery is the traditional way of using the lagoon. Wild elephants are known to frequent the area to the west of Sinnakarachchi Lagoon.

Nilaweli Beach near Trincomalee

locals at Nilaweli Beach near Trincomalee
Nilaweli near Trincomalee is Sri Lanka‘s longest sandy beach offering tourist facilities. Accommodations range from simple guest house up to 3-star hotels. A 4-star hotel is available in Uppuweli. One favourite destination for excursions from Nilaweli Beach is the coral reef of Pigeon Island, which is one of Sri Lanka‘s two marine national parks. Pigeon Island is situated only 1 km off the coast at the northern end of Nilaweli Beach. To be honest: Though the coral reef is still rich in biodiversity, lots of the corals are damaged and would be disappointing for experienced coral reef explorers. Pigeon Island’s small and picturesque beach can be crowded with tourists at times. Almost unknown to tourists is one of the best examples of Sri Lanka’s typical ancient round temple architecture atop a hill at Thiriyai (Tiriyaya). It can be reached from Nilaweli Beach on a half-day excursion by car or tuktuk.
