Abstract

The single sector in Sri Lanka that was most seriously affected by the post-Christmas tsunami of 2004 was fisheries. The tsunami completely devastated life along the coastal belt of the eastern and southern regions of the country, while also causing significant damage to people and property in some of the northern and western regions. The damage to lives, property and economic activities was colossal.
