Tissamaharama

A peaceful lakeside town and a practical, comfortable base for Yala safari adventures.

Tissamaharama is the natural overnight stop before or after a Yala safari. The town’s reservoirs, temples and slower evenings make it a welcome break between Ella, the wildlife parks and Sri Lanka’s south coast.
