The scenery is good by boat. The sea is so beautiful. In fact, the price of the boat can be negotiated. After all, there are few people who come here to play. To pay a tip!

Seenigama Muhudu Viharaya Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
This Senigama Temple in the sea is located alone on an island more than 100 meters from the shore. Unlike the island temple in Matala, there is no bridge connected to the land, and the island must be accessed by boat. This is one of only two temples in Sri Lanka where people who have encountered thieves can pray for "retribution". People who were looted came to this temple to buy an oil made from chili and pepper properties. The victims lit a lamp with the oil, placed it in their homes, and recited a spell. Sooner or later, maybe in a matter of weeks, the thief will have an accident, like being hit by a fallen coconut.

Although I have seen many temples, because it is a rare island that must be landed by boat, I specially came to see it. Before landing on the island, I also saw people swimming nearby, but like many other Sri Lankan temples, you need to take off your shoes to enter the temple. It is recommended that you wear thicker socks to avoid being scalded by high-temperature floors and scratches on the ground.
It feels more impressive than traditional temples on land. Looking at the past from afar, it seems that there is a mirage in the distance, and it is like a fairyland on earth. Although there is a legend of punishing thieves here, I feel a little scared, but I personally feel that this also adds a little mystery to this blue sky and blue sea temple, which is more fascinating.
Tired of traditional temples suitable for coming here, there is no bridge connected to land, the island must be by boat. And there are comparisons about thieves "magic", to be exact, the spirit of terror. But it is actually beautiful~
The temple has seen a lot of it. It’s good to come here. The style is not the same and it really looks interesting. It would be better to catch up with the weather.
