Cần Quan Tâm
Muthurajawela Marsh
Muthurajawela is the largest saline coastal peat bog in Sri Lanka. The Marsh together with the Negombo Lagoon form an integrated coastal wetland eco-system with marsh lagoon complex itself estimated to have originated around the year 5000 BC. The northern section of the marsh covering an area of 1,777ha was declared a sanctuary in July 1996 under the fauna & flora protection ordinance. The marsh is a major local and tourist attraction, primarily used for sightseeing and boating tours, and the area also supports local agriculture and forestry. Visitors to the region are guided through the sanctuary areas by the staff of the Muthurajawela Marsh Centre to avoid serious harm to the marsh ecosystem.

One-of-its kind travel experience in Sri Lanka!

5.00In all respects, a tour with Thilanka was over and above any expectation that I have ever had for a guided tour. What makes Thilanka's personalized tour most special is his passion for and knowledge of Sri Lanka's natural environment (and history, too), which he generously shares in the tour in 'bite size'. Combined with his extraordinary attentiveness to the client's preference and interests, the whole experience is truly unique. His flexibility, reliability, and generosity shine through from the beginning to the end of the program. Sign up if you are visiting Colombo/Negombo!

5.00Very relaxing time with knowledgeable guide. Saw many birds including the featured King Fisher plus Herons, Camerons, Eagles, Anhingas and more.
Definitely a recommendation!

5.00Booked the tour spontaneously because I had a day off while travelling for work, and I can safely say: it's a recommendation. The communication with the tour operator and the driver, Roshan (who made the drive so much more enjoyable and endured all my lame jokes), was easy and quick, and the tour in itself is definitely worth it (especially if you like birds and even if you don't: spending a few hours on a boat is always a delight, especially in a place that's so quiet and away from the city). Ranil, who guides the tour, is brilliant – his excitement is contagious and he can spot birds from what feels like miles away.
Mangroves, Birds and Monkeys

5.00Very professional tour. Our driver Ranil was on time and very nice. He provided water and Sri Lankan cookies. The tour guide with Muthurajawela by boat company was very friendly, knowledgeable and provided fresh watermelon, bananas and fresh coconut juice. Would highly recommend and would do it again!
A lovely early morning experience for nature lovers.

5.00A wonderful experience with an English speaking skipper/guide guide who was very knowledgeable about the birds and other wildlife around the waterways and lagoon. Our group of 4 had booked a private tour. Well worth it. We saw 22 different species. The fresh coconut and watermelon prided as refreshments was much appreciated.
Really enjoyable

5.00My son and I took this trip and had a really good time. We were collected on time from our hotel in Negombo and our driver told us all sorts of useful information about Sri Lanka. We learned a lot. The boat tour was excellent, just us and the guide. We saw birds , monkeys, a small crocodile. He was very knowledgeable. Would recommend this trip
Got to see lots of Kingfishers

5.00It was a great bird watching tour! We started early, 0530am, and got to the marsh just in time for sunrise! My driver Gayan was at the hotel 15 minutes before the scheduled pickup, so we had time to get a quick breakfast and tea! The boat captain was awesome, very knowledgeable, and quick to spot lots of tiny birds in the distance! We got to see 6-8 Kingfishers and some naughty monkeys! A delicious coconut, some bananas, and a smooth ride made the experience worth repeating!
False advertising

2.00Unfortunately this tour did not deliver what was advertised. It was not a bird watching trip. No expert naturalist, old noisy boat, the boat driver asked if we could help identify birds. An expensive 1.5 hr boat trip up the marsh
Looking for birdlife

4.00I chose an early start to hopefully catch the early birds 😉 the drive was interesting catching fish markets and early church goers. Unfortunately not many birds about but I did see peafowl with a male dancing, bee eaters, pelicans, pond herons and egrets
A peaceful morning on the water

5.00A great day out on the water with many beautiful birds and animals spotted. The team were so accommodating and shared great local knowledge. Definitely worth checking out to see some of the beautiful Negombo wildlife
