Introduction
I have written this book to you all about Sri Lanka to help you know about the best places there to visit. Sri Lanka may look like a small island but, from the west-coast golden-sand beaches of Negombo through the rolling hills of Nuwara Eliya to the plains leading to Jaffna in the north, there’s a lot to see. You can explore the history of Sri Lanka in the ancient Singhalese kingdoms of the Cultural Triangle and the Dutch-colonial fortress of Galle. National parks are spread across the country, including Uda Walawe with its roaming herds of elephants. Further you will learn about the culture, economy, people, religion, and about various cities in Sri Lanka.
The best time to visit Sri Lanka depends on which part of the country you’re going to. It’s a year-round destination with consistent warmth and lots of sunshine, with temperatures averaging between 31°C at their highest and 22°C at their lowest. It’s normally hotter in coastal areas and the lowlands than it is in areas with higher altitude. Showers can occur at any time.
The southwest coast is best between December and April, before their monsoon season starts, while the east coast and the north is less humid between May and September, when their monsoon season is over.
The central hills remain cooler all year round and we’d only recommend avoiding them in October and November, when the rainfall is less predictable.
Using their first-hand knowledge, our Sri Lanka specialists can help you choose the best places to visit, to create a tailor-made itinerary that reflects your interests.
