One of the most exciting and serene parks to visit may be the Gal Oya National Park. Found on the eastern shore of the island, the park is close to the previously mentioned Yala National Park. The Park was set up in the 1950s but was then shut down during the Sri Lankan Civil War. Once the conflict had ended, the park was reopened for visitors.
A key aspect of the park is, of course, the Senanayake Samudraya Lake and the spectrum of birds that visit the lake each year based on their migratory patterns.
People who visit can enjoy camping as well as boat safaris that will take them across the lake to enjoy the surrounding landscapes.
