Stilt Fishing Find fishermen balancing themselves carefully form a pole, as the slow waves of the ocean rush past them. Watch them drop a bamboo fishing line to catch fish.

 

Taprobane Island A dense cover of tropical forests, adorn this little island located at a walkable distance from the shore on a low tide. Over the years, it has inspired many composers from Kylie Minogue to Jason Kouchak to write songs upon it.
