Go to Sri lanka On a All Inclusive Holiday

Sri lanka is a beautiful tropical island in the Indian Ocean, lavishly endowed with picturesque beaches and a variety of flora and fauna. Vacations in Sri lanka should be planned according to season.

Sri lanka has two seasons – wet and dry. The two monsoons, Yala (May to August) and Maha (October to January) are the deciding factors. The driest months are from December to March in the west coast, south coast and the hilly regions. This is the best time to visit Srilanka. As December is the peak holiday season with Christmas and New Year holidays, it is recommended to book your accommodation in advance.

However, the ideal time to visit the east coast is from April to September. If you are interested in the festivals of the country, you should visit during the months of July and August, when most festivals like Esala Perahera and Kataragama Festival occur.

Srilanka, lying just 29kms away from the Indian mainland, is a land of majestic mountains, breath-taking waterfalls, slow-flowing rivers, thick tropical forests, golden beaches, placid lagoons and swaying palms. Its varied landscape within the small confines of the island nation is a wonder to visitors.
