The Dutch showed their love of canals here like nowhere else in Sri Lanka. Canals extend from Negombo all the way south to Colombo and north to Puttalam, a total distance of over 120km. You can hire a bicycle in Negombo from various hotels and ride the canal-side paths for some distance, enjoying the views and small villages along the way.

Negombo Canal was a main artery for the spice trade in the 17th and 18th centuries. A boat trip along the canal provides a great way to experience this historically important site, to experience local life, and to see some beautiful nature (on the Waikal side of the canal near Waterland)
