Perhaps one the most photo-friendly experiences in Sri Lanka, stilt fishing is a traditional fishing method still practiced today. Skilled fishermen perch on a vertical pole tied with a crossbar, which allows them to dangle fishing rods into the water below and observe them without causing a disturbance. The best place to see genuine fishermen (as opposed to those posing for tips from tourists) is
#Matara, a small city on Sri Lanka’s southern coast.
