Udawalawe National Park, Sri Lanka, offers a wildlife haven for diverse creatures. The star attraction is undoubtedly the Asian elephant, with herds of up to 50 roaming freely. But look beyond these gentle giants! Sambar deer and spotted deer graze in the grasslands, while shy sloth bears and elusive leopards may be glimpsed by the lucky few. Some of the best activities in Galle include looking out for colourful birds soaring through the sky, including grey-headed fish eagles and crested serpent eagles. Don't forget the park's reptilian residents - water monitors bask on rocks, and the occasional crocodile waits patiently in the water. Set off from your stay at Kahanda Kanda and enjoy being one with the wild.
