Referred to as “The Pearl of the Indian Ocean” in South Asia, a fusion of beach paradises, tropical forests, amazing seafood, and rich British colonial heritages make Sri Lanka irresistible. After a military victory in 2009, Sri Lanka is developing quickly as more and more people discover its incredibly myriad charms.

Weather: Sri Lanka can be visited year-round, December to mid-April is considered to be the peak season. Temperatures are fairly constant year-round. If you’re traveling during the summer months (May to September) you’ll want to head towards the east coast and northern regions for dry, sunny weather, as the west and southwest coasts experience rain at this time. On the flip side, the west and southwest enjoy favorable weather conditions during the winter months (October to February) when the monsoon season hits the east and north.
Sri Lanka’s historic plays an important role as the world’s oldest stronghold of Theravada Buddhism lends, creating a unique cultural identity. But there’s more to Sri Lanka than just Buddhists. This island south of India hosts an extraordinary variety of attractions to visit within its modest size. Lapped up by the Indian Ocean, the coastline is lined with idyllic beaches, while the mainland boasts a string of compelling landscapes ranging from wildlife-rich lowland jungles to the misty highlands of the hills, swathed in tea plantations.
