These water activities are popular pastimes in the environs of Marawila as well as nearby Negombo. The primary season for diving here commences in November, continuing until the month of April. Although you should always be careful with regards to the strong sea currents you will find that the area is a pleasant environment for snorkelling and diving. The tranquil waters of the Negombo lagoon feature attractive underwater scenery as well as a host of exotic marine creatures. In the local waters, divers will encounter angelfish, striped damsels, powder blue sturgeons, turtles and more. As you experience the local attractions an accommodation choice that you may consider would be one of the hotels in Marawila such as the well-located Amagi Beach Marawila.
