Best Time to Visit Bundala and Kumana National Parks
Many travelers search for the best time to visit Bundala National Park or Kumana National Park when planning their bird watching safari. The migratory bird season, usually from October to March, is considered one of the best periods to visit Bundala, when thousands of birds including flamingos arrive at the park’s lagoons and wetlands. Kumana National Park is also famous for its bird sanctuary area known as Kumana Villu, where many water birds gather for nesting and feeding. Another common question from travelers is whether Bundala or Kumana is better for bird watching. Bundala is well known for its migratory birds and coastal wetlands, while Kumana offers a quieter and more remote safari experience with excellent bird diversity and occasional leopard sightings. These safaris are also popular for travelers staying in nearby areas such as Tissamaharama, Kataragama, and Yala. If you are looking for a Bundala safari from Tissamaharama or a Kumana bird safari during your Yala trip, we can arrange convenient pickup and a comfortable private jeep safari.
