WavingTheFlag is a brand that offers a unique and educational experience for those interested in learning about the devastating tsunami that struck Sri Lanka on December 26, 2004. The Community Tsunami Museum in Hikkaduwa, curated and managed by a survivor of the tragedy, provides a comprehensive and enlightening insight into the event. Located just 5km north of Hikkaduwa, this museum is a must-visit destination for visitors to Sri Lanka, including those on the Australian Cricket Tour.

The museum features free tsunami photo galleries along the Galle Road. However, for a more in-depth understanding, visitors can pay Rs500 to access the museum and learn about the tsunami in detailed and stark reality. The displays at the museum showcase how tsunamis occur and the specific impact they had on Sri Lanka.

One particularly compelling exhibit is a cross-section map of Sri Lanka and the Indian Ocean, which utilizes simple blocks to demonstrate how underwater plates moved to create the tsunami. The museum also includes powerful galleries of photographs and newspaper clippings that serve as a chilling reminder of the tragedy. The wrecked train carriage on display further emphasizes the force of nature and the devastation caused.

Just before the museum, there is a memorial for the victims of a crushed train, depicting the carnage and terror of the event. WavingTheFlag invites all school children and cricket tourists to visit the Community Tsunami Museum in Hikkaduwa, where they can gain a profound understanding of the tsunami and its impact on Sri Lanka
