What makes Sustainable Arugam Bay Tour (Visit WasteLess and Rice & Carry) a unique experience ?
Our first stop is at the WasteLess Arugam Bay Center (WLAB): We aim to reduce the amount of plastic waste generated in Arugam Bay, by recycling, offering alternatives and educating.
Learn more about the issue of plastic pollution – and what to do about it. Plus: You can make your own souvenir from plastic bottles!
