High quality yacht experience!
The service was excellent, professional, and very friendly, making us feel comfortable throughout the journey. The yacht ride was smooth, relaxing, and truly enjoyable with beautiful views. It was well organized and worth every moment. I highly recommend Sail Lanka for anyone looking for a memorable and high quality yacht experience.
Highly recommend!
The captain and crew were very welcoming and we had an amazing time on the boat. They were very accommodating as we were a loud bunch that partied hard. A very enjoyable ride even though it rained it did not feel wasted at all. Highly recommend!
It was a really memorable experience.
It was a really memorable experience. We did the 3-hour sunset cruise at the Colombo Port City for our son's 14th birthday, and he and his friends had a really good time. The crew were super helpful, and it's definitely a memorable experience. Booking was straightforward, and the contact staff were helpful. On the cruise they have a few food items as part of the package, which is decent. Nothing to rave about, so take your food if food is a concern (we brought some). They have soft drinks onboard as well, very decently priced. But the overall experience of sailing into the ocean, the dip in the water and just the beautiful sunset, is 100%worth it.
The boat was smooth and comfortable
This sunset sailing trip was a beautiful surprise. It’s easy to forget how close the ocean is when you're stuck in traffic in Colombo! We set sail from the marina and immediately felt the stress melt away. The view of Port City from the water is striking clean lines, tall buildings, and that warm evening light. The boat was smooth and comfortable, and there was even a chance to jump into the ocean. Paddle boarding was fun too though I mostly just floated and enjoyed the stillness. As the sun dipped below the horizon, the entire sky lit up in orange and pink. It was calming in a way I didn’t expect. Great for couples, friends, or even a solo moment of peace.
The city melted away
After a hectic week in Colombo, this sunset sailing trip was just what I needed. The second we left the marina, the noise and chaos of the city faded away. The view of Port City from the water is surprisingly beautiful modern, quiet, and glowing in the evening light. The boat was spacious and clean, and the crew made everyone feel relaxed.
One of the most relaxing evenings of my trip
The cruise itself was super chill. We mingled with other travelers, enjoyed light music, and just soaked in the views. I loved how easygoing everything felt no strict schedule, just sailing with the wind. The staff handled everything smoothly and made sure we were all comfortable. For something peaceful, scenic, and social, this cruise is perfect. One of the most relaxing evenings of my trip.
