Koggala Lake is brilliant for SUP yoga right now, but you absolutely must book the 6:30 AM sunrise session. The water is like glass at that time. By 10:00 AM, the sea breeze picks up and it becomes too choppy for a stable headstand.
Just a reminder to wear reef safe sunscreen even on the lake, and bring insect repellent. The mangroves can get a bit buggy near the edges.
I highly recommend the sunrise class! Floating on the lake while the cinnamon island farmers start their day is an incredibly peaceful experience.
Scam Watch: galle
Someone befriends you and offers a "once in a lifetime" opportunity to buy gems at wholesale prices and resell them abroad for huge profit. They may show you fake export certificates. The gems are worthless glass or low-quality stones.
Restaurants without visible prices. Bill arrives with inflated charges (500 LKR coconut becomes 1500 LKR). "Service charges" added without disclosure.
