Nestled along Sri Lanka’s East Coast, Pasikuda offers a quite idyllic seaside escape with much to see, do and experience for families and couples alike.
Pasikuda Bay
One of the key features here is the bay, which is one of the longest shallow coastlines on the planet! What this means for those staying at Pasikuda hotels by the shore is that they can actually wade quite far out to sea and safely enjoy activities like swimming.
Water Sports
The bay provides the ideal setting for some thrilling water sports too. Properties such as The Calm Resort & Spa offer a range of water-based activities from snorkelling and sailing to action-packed jet skiing which is perfect for adrenaline junkies!
Marine Reefs
The ocean waters around Pasikuda feature thriving reefs that are home to diverse marine life. Those engaged in diving can look to explore Pasikuda Reef where one will find hard and soft corals along with such species as butterflyfish, damselfish and sweetlips. The Mushroom and Leather Coral reefs are amongst the other reefs you can look to explore.
Submerged Wrecks
Deep sea diving in Pasikuda gives you a chance to explore some of the wrecks that can be found on the ocean floor. Sunk during World War Two, the British Sergeant is one such wreck that is now home to coral and marine life.
