Negombo Fishing Harbour
The town of Negombo has grown with the passage of time from a simple fishing village in to a prominent and popular tourist destination in Sri Lanka. Despite
this fact the town still maintains its traditional fishing heritage. Representing
the more traditional side ofthis rapidly developing nation, the Negombo fishing harbour is a destination that should be a part of any travel to the city.

As its name suggests the harbour is used extensively by fisherman trying to
earn their daily living, which carries on a long established practice. This can be witnessed every day in the town, though visitors have to arrive early in the morning and before noon to catch glimpses of the boats arriving with their daily haul.

The fishing harbour presents one of those places to visit in Negombo that truly communicates and bring across the town’s underlying nature. Despite doubling as a tourist destination, at its heart lays a traditional fishing community and all that is associated with it.

It is not difficult to experience this traditional side of Sri Lanka when residing at Jetwing Ayurveda Pavilions as the hotel is located in Negombo itself.
