Hummanaya blowhole in Sri lanka
The "Hummanaya Blowhole" is located 1.1 kilometres from the fishing village of Kudawella , which is 28 km from Matara 5 km from Dickwella and 12 km from Thangalle , in the Southern Province. "Hummanaya" is a natural Blowhole, and caused when sea water rushes through a submerged cavern and is pushed upwards. The sea water flows underneath the shore, and then comes out of this hole due to pressure. The Water fountain created by the geological feature shoots up every couple of minutes, depending on the nature of the sea, with the spray often reaching as high as 25 m to 30 m. This site has now been developed as a tourist attraction, with a small visitors' information centre on Marine life and a viewing platform. This is very amzing place in Southern Province.
