Travel story
A special seasonal journey in Sri Lanka’s southern coast, embraced by the Indian Ocean, where you can enjoy both the sea and festive celebrations.
Avurudu is the Sinhala and Tamil New Year celebrated in Sri Lanka in mid-April.
Moments of encountering whales swimming gracefully in the open ocean intersect with experiencing the warm traditional culture of Avurudu.
The dynamism of nature and the prayers and smiles of the people resonate together, turning the trip into an experience that goes beyond mere sightseeing.
In springtime Sri Lanka, we offer you moments to feel the vitality of life and the joy of the New Year with all your senses.
Signature points
Thrilling whale-watching experience
A special cruise off Mirissa aiming to encounter some of the world’s largest blue whales.
There are also chances to see dolphins and a variety of marine life, letting you experience the grandeur of the Indian Ocean.
A guide accompanies the cruise so you can safely enjoy your adventure on the open sea.
Immersion in Avurudu cultural experiences
Experience the traditional Avurudu ceremonies that celebrate Sri Lanka’s New Year.

Peace of mind with private vehicle and Japanese/English guide
Travel by private vehicle with a relaxed schedule for comfortable touring.
A Japanese or English-speaking guide accompanies you to carefully explain highlights and cultural background.
