About
Spreading over a picturesque land that is on the banks of the watercourse Kelani, the Water World is a wondrous place of aquatic life and makes for a fun day visit for people of all ages.
Where to stay
If you are visiting the island and staying at a hotel in Colombo, Sri Lanka, do visit the place as it is just an hour away from hotels like Cinnamon Grand Colombo, for instance.
Going in
You can expect to see rare and mystifying specimens of the kingdom, from arapaima to electric eels, lungfish, and freshwater stingrays. Being the first of its kind on the island, the Water World attracts many a visitor throughout the year and is a must visit for tourists too.
What to expect
The place is home to more than 150 tanks and ponds that hold about a million litres of water among them. The focal attraction within the Water World is its latest addition, the Tunnel Aquarium which was opened in 2013. For a memorable and educational day out with the children, this place is the best to be at.
