Complete guide
Kumana,
a luxury guide.
A remote bird-rich park east of Yala — the quietest of the south's safaris.
Kumana — once Yala East — is a remote dry-zone park on the south-east coast, reached by 4x4 from Pottuvil or by a long drive around Yala. It has the best birdlife in southern Sri Lanka, almost no other jeeps, and a fair chance of leopard.
Best time: April to September. Duration: 2 nights.
