Good Morning Wonderful Steem Community,

How are you all? I hope you're doing well. So if you tell me about this place, you have to go on a by-road from Puttalam to Vanathavillu. Boards have been dubbed the 'Gange Wadiya'.

This part of the do is beautiful. Balapitiya is like a visit to Madu river. There's a mangrove reserve. It is a beautiful place situated on the edge of a protected forest known to many.

All of you know about Wilpattu Reserve. This is why large-scale forest deforestation has taken place recently. Therefore, this carp can be easily identified.

When I visit, there is very little water here. It is from this place that the Kala reservoir falls into the sea.

Situated on the river Kala stream estuary is a high ecological value area with a natural mangrove plant system. Without proper study, this type of sand mining can cause damage to the ecosystem and damage the life of the community.

You have a beautiful little island along the river. You can have a beautiful day there and go sunbathing at the mouth of the estuary. Life will be a memorable day for you.

Mangrove forests should be preserved for the foreseeable future because there are many major benefits. Of those, the mangroves serve as the natural coast guard. Mangroves remove carbon dioxide from the air. The livelihoods of a large number of mangroves and coastal settlements are supported. The mangrove ecosystem is a biodiversity ecosystem.

That was big tree I saw from the island after landed the boat there. Those big trees give big advantages to the biodiversity.

Some people doing fishery industry for their lives. Also some people doing boat safari for their lives. I saw lot of local and foreign tourists visit the island through boats. So Sri Lankan people have big responsibility for preserve this place for increase tourist attraction.

It has been reported that the mixing of seawater has caused problems such as drinking water. Environmentalists say that this threatens the livelihood of ancient fishermen.

Excessive sand pumping has destroyed the mangroves. If you go here because of a forest reserve, do not carry polythene. Be sure to bring them back. After spent few hours we leave from beautiful mangrove island. Thanks for visiting.
