Tom Hummanaya / Kudawella Blow Hole, Dikewella, Sri Lanka: Hear The Roar & Feel The Spray!
On our way from Galle to Tissamaharama, our driver suggested that we drive by Dikewella to see probably the world’s highest blow hole, the Hummanaya Blow Hole.
At the entrance of the Hummanaya Blow Hole, the first thing that caught my eye was the huge rib of a blue whale!

After paying a nominal fee of S$2 at the ticket counter, we had to trek about 20minutes to see the Hummanaya Blow Hole. As it wasn’t the right season, the height of the spray was not as high as some had mentioned (about 120feet). Nevertherless, it was awesome to hear the pressure build up like rumbling thunder, the hissing sound of the spray, and feeling the cool spray on your skin on a hot day!

This happens every 10 to 15 minutes depending on wind direction and level of water, so get your camera ready for the perfect shot of the Hummanaya Blow Hole! 
In addition, you can really hear the roar of the blow hole as the pressure builds up! Not only that, the spray can also be felt! Talk about 4D experience!
