Sailing, Diving & Whale Watching
Where the Ocean Whispers its Secrets
There’s something sacred about setting out to sea before sunrise — when the water is still ink-blue and the wind holds its breath. In Sri Lanka, the ocean is more than a backdrop. It’s a living rhythm. A canvas of light, movement, and mystery.
Here, sailing isn’t just a luxury — it’s a quiet ritual. Diving becomes an act of discovery. And whale watching… a moment where time pauses, and a tail rises like a monument from the deep.
This is where the island meets infinity — and invites you to go further.
Sailing – Wind, Horizon, Freedom
The coastlines of Sri Lanka are best understood from the deck of a private or chartered catamaran — where the breeze fills the sails and the world slips into silence.
Depart from Mirissa or Pasikuda aboard a sleek catamaran, with champagne breakfasts, sea swims, and hidden islets calling you offshore. Watch flying fish skim the waves, snorkel beside coral reefs, and — if the season is right — anchor at a secluded bay for sunset tapas, served barefoot on deck.
What we offer:
- Private luxury catamaran charters with gourmet dining
- Overnight sailings with on-board chefs and spa therapists
- Sunset cruises along coral-fringed coastlines
- Island-hopping with kayaking and paddleboarding options
Stay at:
- Uga Jungle Beach (Trincomalee) – forest meets ocean in secluded elegance
- Agnus Unawatuna – hillside boutique escape with ocean views
- Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa – beachfront sophistication with full-service comfort
Whale Watching – Giants Beneath the Blue
Few experiences compare to the moment a blue whale breaches the surface — vast, graceful, and timeless. Along the coasts of Mirissa, Trincomalee, and Kalpitiya, Sri Lanka reveals itself as one of the world’s best places to encounter whales, dolphins, and other marine marvels.
Our private charters are led by marine biologists and seasoned skippers, offering intimate, respectful experiences timed perfectly with the seasons.
Key locations & seasons:
- Mirissa (Nov–Apr) – iconic for blue whales, near top-tier southern stays
- Trincomalee (May–Sept) – east coast calm and fewer crowds
- Kalpitiya (Nov–Mar) – dolphin pods, pilot whales, and remote seascapes
Diving & Coral Reefs – Beneath the Surface
Sri Lanka’s underwater landscapes are still wonderfully underexplored — bursting with color and life. Off Pasikuda, warm waters cradle coral gardens teeming with plate corals, soft fans, and darting reef fish.
Head north to Trincomalee for wreck dives, vibrant reef ecosystems, and calm snorkeling conditions. Whether you’re exploring sunken history or photographing nocturnal reef life, the experience is designed to be safe, beautiful, and often entirely private.
What we offer:
- Guided diving experiences with PADI-certified instructors
- Coral reef tours with expert marine naturalists
- Night dives and underwater photography adventures
- Snorkeling from private catamarans or secluded beaches
Stay at:
- Uga Bay – steps from the reef, with serene beachfront villas
- Karapaha Sands (Pasikudah) – family-friendly comfort and easy ocean access
- Uga Jungle Beach (Trincomalee) – tucked between jungle and reef-rich coast
Exclusive Touches
- Marine biologist-led whale watching experiences
- Private dive boats with expert crew and equipment
