You can spend another day by the pool or beach today or head out on the local boat to Pigeon Island, one of the best spots in Sri Lanka to go snorkelling or diving. The island suffered from over-tourism for many years, however, conservation efforts and limited numbers have made this a sealife haven once more! Back on land, finish the day in the resort, getting to the pool in time for sunset!
