A myriad of colours and an array of marine species make you spellbound with just a sneak peek at the strip of the reef, read on to uncover much more.
Find your base
As there are no camping sites at the marine park, to make the most of your time, stay close to the Hikkaduwa resort area which offers many good hotels which are also family and pet friendly.

Do a complete tour of the park nicely cocooned in a glass-bottomed boat, favoured by guests at Hikka Tranz by Cinnamon. No need to swim or get wet, you can still witness the marine life and the stunning burst of colour at the coral reefs.
Spectacular underwater vistas
Seek the relatively calm and shallow waters and try snorkelling to experience the great ecosystem, the harmony of living corals and thousands of colourful reef fish protected by the benevolent reef.
Best kept secrets
Known for a collection of dive sites that uncover blue whales, sperm whales, humpback and
even random shipwrecks, scuba diving at Hikkaduwa is a remarkable experience to encounter
unique reef formations and layers of underground caves offering havens to numerous underwater life forms.
