Most often dozens of traditional colourful outrigger boats are seen pulled up following their night fishing expeditions.Weligama beach is famous for its stilt fishermen. In chest-deep water on the beach, just a few meters off-shore, are the stilt fishermen perched on a cross bar fixed on a single pole planted into the sea-bed.
