About Natural History and Science Museum

Natural History and Science Museum sits near Pasikuda on Sri Lanka's East Coast, offering visitors an opportunity to step away from the beach and engage with the island's natural world and scientific heritage. Typical of such institutions, the museum presents collections relating to local flora, fauna, geology and ecological systems, giving context to the remarkable biodiversity found across Sri Lanka. Displays are generally suited to a range of ages, making it a reasonable choice for families or travellers with a particular interest in natural history. A visit here provides useful background knowledge that can enrich time spent exploring the surrounding coastal and inland environments. Allow a couple of hours to move comfortably through the galleries at a relaxed pace.
