The stilt fishermen of Koggala represent one of Sri Lanka’s most iconic and visually striking traditions. Perched on slender wooden poles rising from the shallow water, fishermen cast their lines with patience and skill, continuing a coastal practice that has been passed down through generations. Watching them framed against the ocean offers a rare glimpse into the rhythm of local life and the resourcefulness of the southern fishing communities. The setting is peaceful and uniquely tied to this region, making it an unforgettable moment for photography, storytelling, and cultural appreciation. It is a beautiful reminder of the simplicity and heritage of Sri Lanka’s coast.
