Being a popular tourist destination, Sri Lanka is packed with hotels and places to stay for all kinds of budgets. There are so many options in terms of destinations that it will make your stay on the island unforgettable; Anuradhapura, Galle, Yala, Nuwara Eliya and Colombo to name a few. Though it looks just a mere island, its charming natural beauty has managed to seduce travelers for ages.

What Sri Lanka has to offer is right in front of you, hiding in plain sight, ready and waiting to seduce you.

And I highly suggest you let it. 🌅

Weather

Just like any tropical country, Sri Lanka has plenty of bugs too! So use plenty of bug spray. It’s hot and humid, and cotton clothing, sunscreen and deodorant are your friends 😉

December to March is the best time to travel weather wise. But the best time to visit Sri Lankan beaches is from November to March, when the island is free of the two monsoon seasons that can make beach travel a less than ideal experience.

Transport

Public transport is not for the faint-hearted – but it’s such a fascinating cultural experience! Be sure to take one train and one bus at the very least, if only to experience a small taste of local life. 🚊🚍
