Yes, taking a boat from Kalpitiya across the Dutch Bay directly into Wilpattu National Park is a fantastic, secret way to enter the reserve. It completely avoids the long, bumpy road drive to the main southern entrance gate.

You must organize this specific marine safari through reputable local tour operators in Kalpitiya, such as Dolphin Beach Resort or local boat associations. They will arrange the necessary wildlife permits and a certified park ranger to meet your boat when you land on the Wilpattu shore.
