Traditional Fishing & Sea Cucumber Adventure – A Full-Day Coastal Escape
Begin your morning with a scenic boat ride across Jaffna’s calm waters, heading toward a hidden, untouched beach far from the crowds. Upon arrival, local fishermen and their helper will prepare the spot for you—cleaning the area, setting up a shaded tent, arranging comfortable seating, and even setting up a beach volleyball net for a fun and active day ahead.
Once everything is ready, Have a Tea and head back to the sea with the fishermen to experience traditional fishing firsthand. Learn how to set nets and discover old techniques passed down through generations. Afterward, cool off with a refreshing beach bath and relax under the tent as the fishermen prepare your fresh catch. Together, you’ll cook the fish in authentic style and enjoy it with bread, fruits, and other simple but delicious accompaniments.
Spend some leisurely time playing beach volleyball, swimming, or simply soaking up the serenity of this pristine coastal haven. Later in the afternoon, board the boat again and head to a local sea cucumber hut. Here, you’ll explore how this fascinating trade works and see the unique process behind sea cucumber culture.
As the day winds down, prepare to witness a breathtaking coastal sunset before returning across the water to the mainland.
This immersive full-day experience combines fishing, food, fun, and cultural discovery perfect for anyone seeking a truly authentic Jaffna adventure.
