Authentic Jungle Experience at the heart of wilderness
Located in the southeast corner of Sri Lanka , the 18,149 hectare KUMANA (YALA EAST) NATIONAL PARK is a well-known eco tourism attraction and bird sanctuary where a multitude of birds breed and roost. One of the most significant features of the park is the ‘Kumana Villu’ – a 200 hectare natural swamp lake, fed by the ‘Kumbukkan Oya’ through a half mile long narrow channel. It is at this mangrove swamp that many water birds nest in May and June. Regular sightings include such species of bird as pelicans, painted storks, spoonbills, white ibis, herons, egrets and little cormorants.
The very rare black-necked stork has also been spotted at the swamp. Besides the prolific birdlife, Kumana is also home to some of the mammals found in the larger YALA NATIONAL PARK (west) park, such as elephants and leopards. The vegetation in Kumana consists mainly of mangrove trees, kumbuk trees and the karan fern, as well as the open marsh area. For bird watching enthusiasts, the park is an ‘absolute must’.

We had the best experience on our safari. The guide Ansa really knew how to find and spot the animals. He was super nice and very respectful towards the animals. We saw 3!!! Leopards in the wild. Also a bear, lots of elephants and crocs. It was awesome, would absolutely recommend these guys! 🙂

We booked a evening tour and got the full experience! Thank you Ansa and Co.
The communication was great and the driver picked us up at our Hotel. Brought us to the gate of Kumana National Park, managed all entrance costs and then we started a great safari.
The driver found great spots to see all different kinds of animals. We saw elephants, buffalo, crocodiles, a bear and got lucky to see also a beautiful leopard.
It was a great experience and we would recommend it to everyone!
