About this site
Kadawara Gala sits along Sri Lanka's southern coast, with coordinates placing it near the Weligama and Mirissa area, and is typically reached by small boat from one of these local towns. The site is built on a rocky bottom and reaches a maximum depth of around 18 metres. It is rated as an advanced dive, so it suits divers with more experience than a typical beginner reef outing.
