About Monkey Island Negombo Boat Tour
The Monkey Island Negombo Boat Tour is the most unique and sought-after wildlife experience in Sri Lanka — and it can only be reached by boat. Hidden deep inside Negombo Lagoon lies a small, uninhabited island home to a thriving colony of wild toque macaque monkeys — a species found nowhere else in the world but Sri Lanka. This is Monkey Island. And the only way to get there is with us.
