A fisheries harbour has been constructed in Hambantota at a cost of Rs 7 million.
The lack of a fisheries harbour in Hambantota earlier compelled the fishing community of Hambantota to sail to distant fisheries harbours such as Kudawella, Kirinda and Tangalle in their vessels.
The fisheries harbour consists of a net mending hall, an auction hall, a canteen, a recreation hall and a filling station. Manager of the harbour P Punchihewa said an ice plant too would be installed in the near future.
Nearly 200 multi-day boats and 100 fishing crafts could also be anchored at this harbour.
