Know before you go

Everything you need to make the most of your Yala safari.

Wildlife

Best time to spot a leopard

Early morning (5–8am) is your best window. Leopards are most active near waterholes at dawn before the heat sets in.

Preparation

What to bring on your safari

Light clothing in neutral tones, sun protection, a camera with zoom, and insect repellent. Avoid bright colours — they disturb wildlife.
