An evening safari at Wilpattu captures the park as it transitions from day to night. Starting in the late afternoon, this safari provides a chance to observe animals winding down from their day or preparing for nighttime activities. With fewer people around, visitors can often spot leopards, elephants, and other animals around waterholes without disturbance. As the sun sets, the park’s calm atmosphere and fading light create a memorable experience for photographers and nature enthusiasts alike. Evening safaris conclude at sunset, just as the forest settles into the evening calm.
