Ritipanna is the Sinhalese term for stilt fishing, which is a traditional method for fishing practiced by most fishermen along the southern coast of Sri Lanka. This art is popularly seen in areas such as Ahangama, Koggala, Welipenna, Kathaluwa and Thalarambe. A narrow pole is tied to a stick that is anchored on the sea bed. Fisher folk climb onto this stick and settle on the pole for a few hours in an effort to catch some fish.

Fishermen found on stilts are those who do not have access to sophisticated equipment for fishing. These men can make a living simply with the help of two wooden poles to make a stilt. One pole is nailed onto the sea bed and the other is placed like a cross bar and acts as a plank for the fishermen to sit on. Each stilt can accommodate only one fisherman. For catching fish, they create a rod made of Kithul, and a small plastic bag is tied around their waist to hold the fish that they catch. With one hand they hold onto the stilt and with the other they hold the rod that catches fish. The tradition of stilt fishing will always be practiced by those who cannot afford to invest in modern fishing equipment.

Top Koggala Hotel Reviews

Villa White Queen Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I almost didn’t rate this so it is not fully booked next time I visit. What an amazing hotel, such a big and clean room, staff are super friendly and I wish I could have stayed for more than two nights. Only a few minutes on a tuk tuk from the Fort (if you can get one!)"

Riff Hikkaduwa

10/10 Excellent

"From the moment you walk in the hotel is immaculate and the staff are there for your every need. We were upgraded to a suite and it is the nicest room I have ever stayed in. For reference I have travelled all over the world. The beach area is perfect for lounging in their loungers or taking a dip in the ocean with a perfect sandy bottom. The food is fantastic and the beds are softer than most that I stayed in around Sri Lanka. The hotel is five stars all the way and can’t recommend it enough. Great sunsets as well. Cheers "

Tabula Rasa Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"What a beautiful gem of a boutique hotel nestled on a hill surrounded by nature. Our room was beautiful, comfortable and spacious. It was tastefully designed and filled with personal touches such as books and beautiful photographs. The restaurant called The Dutch is superb. The daily breakfast menu was our favourite breakfast on this trip to Sri Lanka. The entire property is exceptional. We can’t wait to return. "

Jungle Village By Thawthisa

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great! The only thing I didn't love was the internet connection. It looks like they use 4G cellular modems with data limits instead of a cable or fiber network. I occasionally had to hold Teams meetings for work, and the connection would drop and never get back. However, this seems to be a common issue across Sri Lanka, not just at this hotel. Aside from that, everything else was absolutely perfect, especially the staff and the location!"
