Anawilundawa Sanctuary

The Anawilundawa Bird Sanctuary is situated in the Puttalam district in the North Western province of the country; between Chilaw and Puttlam – to be more specific – it is situated between the coast and the Chilaw-Puttlam railway line. The uniqueness of Anawilundawa is its immediate proximity to three vastly different ecosystems; the coast, the mangroves and the fresh water tanks making it one of the six RAMSAR Wetlands in Sri Lanka. This unique ecological setting has made it a favorable nesting and breeding ground for hundreds of species of birds.

Anawilundawa wetland sanctuary is located approximately 60 KM from Negombo, on the Colombo Puttalam highway. It is a haven for bird watchers both resident and migratory. Anawilundawa is also the nesting site for many exotic birds; including some of the rarer species of cormorants, egrets, storks and ibis, along with the pheasant tailed-jacana and the purple swamp hen. If you are able to enter the sanctuary by 6.00 AM you will get to see over 150 species of birds leaving their nests for the day. A unique excursion created especially for bird lovers. Probably the best day excursion to experience nature. There are two Hindu Temple visits as a bonus on this tour!
