Round the Island by Boat

Discover the beauty of Colombo from the sea, Enjoy unforgettable boat tours, peaceful sailing trips, and thrilling water sports led by expert captain

Once they called it Taprobana, a legendary island known for its unique position among the ancient naval routes of the world. From the Greeks and merchant Arabs to the rogue prince who found refuge in this paradise lost, Sri Lanka has long been a vital part of global history. Conquered in turn by the Portuguese, Dutch, and English—each leaving behind lasting impressions—the island’s story still holds countless mysteries waiting to be uncovered.

 

At Round the Island, we invite you to embark on an unforgettable voyage—through Colombo’s vibrant shores and beyond—exploring its hidden gems by sea and land. Experience the thrill of boat rides, yachting, sailing, and power boating guided by our skilled boat captains and coxswains in Colombo. Dive beneath the waves with scuba diving and snorkelling, feel the rush of jet skiing, water skiing, and tubing, or embrace adventure with rafting, fishing, and swimming tours.

 

Join us for a curated journey that combines history, culture, and exhilarating water sports—discovering the timeless beauty of an island unlike any other.

About the Captain

Sunshine on deck, laughter on the breeze

Mark Scott is no stranger to the waters. His earliest childhood memory takes him back to being a 4-year old lad, towing toy boats with a stick. Small wonder then that Mark has dedicated his life to navigating the waterways of the world. First having touched down on the island of Sri Lanka in 1985, a 21-year old Mark fell in love with the untouched beauty of the island that he now calls home.
