A popular destination for its awesome wide, long & deserted beaches & its close proximity to the Capital Colombo & the airport highway. Plenty of water sports are an attraction to this spectacular ‘long beach’. Colonial & Christian influences have left behind numerous pretty monuments & buildings with attractive architecture & grace. A large lagoon, Sea & other waterways enable a substantial catch of fish in order to supply an increasing demand for seafood by large hotels in Negombo& adjacent settlements.

The Old Dutch Hamilton Canal passing through from the north to the south enabled convenient transport of seafood from the very olden days. Still it is an alternative mode of transport of goods & people, especially when the highways get jammed.

Negombo Dutch Fort, St. Mary’s Cathedral, Guruge Water Park, Morawala Pebble Beach, St. Sebastian’s Church, St. Stephen’s Anglican Church, Bird Watching at Muthurajawela Marsh Estuary, Hamilton Canal, Fish Market, Bodhiraja Temple, Blue Lagoon etc. are some of the main attractions in Negombo to visit. A busy fishing Harbour with its hive of activity offers a wide variety of fish and other seafood to town & suburbs in the neighborhood.
