Photogallery of pictures taken during Sri Lanka journeys and expeditions - Sinnakarachchi Lagoon.

Sinnakarachchi Lagoon is a shallow, brackish water coastal lagoon located along the north eastern coast of Sri Lanka near Trincomalee. The lagoon contains some mangrove swamps and sea grass beds, but is dominated by extensive inter-tidal mud flats, and is connected to the sea through a narrow canal. The lagoon is fairly shallow, with a maximum depth of approximately two metres, although many areas are much shallower and are exposed during low tide. The lagoon is surrounded by natural habitats such as mangroves and scrublands, and managed habitats such as paddy fields and coconut plantations.
