  • Ritipanna is the Sinhalese term for stilt fishing, which is a traditional method for fishing practiced by most fishermen along the southern coast of Sri Lanka. This art is popularly seen in areas such as Ahangama, Koggala, Welipenna, Kathaluwa and Thalarambe. A narrow pole is tied to a stick that is anchored on the sea bed. Fisher folk climb onto this stick and settle on the pole for a few hours in an effort to catch some fish. Fishermen found on stilts are those who do not have access to sophisticated equipment for fishing. These men can make a living simply with the help of two wooden poles to make a stilt. One pole is nailed onto the sea bed and the other is placed like a cross bar and acts as a plank for the fishermen to sit on. Each stilt can accommodate only one fisherman. For catching fish, they create a rod made of Kithul, and a small plastic bag is tied around their waist to hold the fish that they catch. With one hand they hold onto the stilt and with the other they hold the rod that catches fish. The tradition of stilt fishing will always be practiced by those who cannot afford to invest in modern fishing equipment. #likealocal

Gorgeous little beach with sun beds and a bar with amazing fresh juice. They also do beach parties. Lots of monkeys around from the forest, so mind your belongings. #beach

My boyfriend and I had the most fantastic experience during our time at Sea Heart House and I cannot recommend it enough - i'm conscious that my review cannot possibly do it justice! All the staff were absolutely charming, going out of their way to be genuinely helpful and welcoming. We were very kindly accompanied on a bike ride around the lake with the wonderful and knowledgeable Ranga and the experience was one of my highlights from our overall trip. We stopped to sample local foods from roadside stalls and explored tea plantations and rode underneath avocado trees and past pineapple and cinnamon plants. The views and situation of the property are truly breathtaking and a lovely break from the sometimes hectic coast. The generosity of the food that the staff prepared daily was delicious and wonderful surprise each time. Our time at Sea Heart House could not have been more authentic and enjoyable. As mentioned above, I cannot recommend it enough to anyone who is looking to experience the genuine generosity and hospitality that Sri Lanka has to offer. Please don't hesitate to book.
