About this experience
Join a private sunrise or sunset kayaking session through the mangrove waterways near Bentota. Over three hours, you paddle tandem sit-on-top kayaks along calm channels where the mangrove canopy closes overhead, filtering the early or late light into shifting greens and golds. Birdsong and the quiet dip of paddles set the pace. Your CPR-trained guide leads the way, covering a short kayaking lesson before you set off, with a backup motor boat following throughout. All gear — kayaks, paddles, and fully adjustable life jackets — is provided, along with a first aid kit.\n\nNote that hotel pick-up, food, and beverages are not included, so arrange your own transport to the meeting point and bring water for the paddle. Participants must be at least 13 years old. Lakpura books this as a private activity, so the water stays yours to explore at your own pace.
