Iduruwa  quiet beach town 2.5 hrs south of Colombo. No disco, no raves. Quiet beach nice warm ocean. Sea Food!! We stayed at Beach Villa 662.

662 Galle rd Induruwa Sri Lanka airbnb.  Raymond and his crew took good care of us. We missed there was not a guest kitchen. So Raymond cooked for us a lot. I muscled in the kitchen 2 times. Tuna and Prawns. We mostly hung out at the beach. We took a river safari. 2 hour boat ride. Birds, lizards, a croc.  Violet and I went to Udawalawe National Park on a real safari. We stayed at Nature Glow Cottage.  (booking.com) A one bungalow operation in their yard. It is killer. They are so nice. The room was spotless and they cooked us great food. Thushan  the cottage owners brother did our safari. He is excellent we would have  seen half of the wildlife without him. The dirt roads were in decent shape so the ride was pleasant.

The elephants just walk by, 5 feet away. Monkeys come up and want to get fed. It is a great place to see the wildlife.
