- Bundala National Park - Bundala National Park is located approximately 15 Kilometers from Tissamaharma, the nearest resort town. In 2005 the park was designated as a biosphere reserve by UNESCO, also designated a RAMSAR wetland its home to many migratory water birds in Sri Lanka. The most famous visitor being the greater flamingo’s which arrives in large flocks up to a thousand birds at a time is, making a cacophony of noise with their feeding and covering the entire area of the main Bundala lagoon with a pinkish threadbare carpet, truly a sight to behold. The park contains 05 brackish water lagoons, Bundala being the best known and the best place to creep to watch elephants frolicking at dusk is the nearby tank called “Kokara”, advice caution as the elephants found at Bundala is a little more aggressive due to human-elephant conflict in the area. Area is home to many plant species along with mammals, reptiles and butterflies. The sleepy little hamlet within the sanctuary is the best place to locate yourself to observe wildlife after dusk.

Situated roughly 15 kilometers away from its closest resort town, Tissamaharama, Bundala National Park acquired the status of a biosphere reserve from UNESCO in 2005. It’s also a RAMSAR wetland, serving as a haven for various species of migratory water birds in Sri Lanka. The park is notably visited by the large flocks of Greater Flamingos who populate the area in their thousands, creating a loud but fascinating display of feeding activity, and coating the primary lagoon of Bundala with a sheer pinkish hue—a mesmerising spectacle. The park houses five brackish lagoons, with Bundala enjoying the highest recognition as the prime elephant-watching spot, especially at the nearby water body, ‘Kokara’. But a note of caution—these elephants might exhibit signs of aggression, a result of human-elephant conflicts in the region. Bundala is also a rich reservoir of various plant species as well as being a habitat for a variety of mammals, reptiles and butterflies.
