OVERVIEW

Colombo is an undiscovered gem that is frequently overlooked. Delicious Vegetarian and Non-Vegetarian cuisines, Seafood, High Tea at the Galle Face Hotel and Seeni Sambol crepes at Dilmahs are just some of the finer experiences the city can offer.  Only-in-YPO experiences include seeing the sights of Colombo in Vintage cars, Tea tasting with a tea connoisseur, Shipwreck diving and interactions with local YPOs.  

Kir & Caviar can also arrange for an insider’s tour of the 1500 year old Sigiriya Rock Palace – a UNESCO world heritage site.  We can add resources as needed to enhance the fun and learning that make a memorable Retreat.

DETAILS

At Kir & Caviar Luxury Vacations, we want your experience to be different from a typical retreat. To that end, we conduct in-depth research and go out of our way to find unique activities or events that would make your retreat truly worthwhile.  Here are some of our suggestions.

Shipwreck Dives

Wreck diving in Sri Lanka is an amazing experience not to be missed by any diver and Colombo offers a few incredible wreck sites not too far from the city.

Taprobane North Wreck (Perseus)

A massive ship, intact and lying on pristine sand. A haven for shoals of fish and a place of pristine wilderness and 30M+ Visibility! It is suspected to be the British Armed Merchant Perseus sunk off Colombo in 1917 by a German Mine Layer. Investigations are still underway to ascertain this ships identity.

The upright barge sits peacefully on the white sandy seabed in quiet clear waters, covered in colourful organisms. Expect Stingray, Napoleon Fish, Red Lions and vast shoals of glassfish amongst the abundant life here.

Avid Divers should also check out the British Sergeant which is a world class wreck located about 4 hours away from Colombo on the eastern coast.
