Travel to Sri Lanka
When it comes to travel to Sri Lanka, the rule used to be that October to March was the best time to stay on the west coast (the sea is calm then and the beach is broad). April is the spring season in the hill country, and May to September is the time to be on the east-coast beaches around Trincomalee when the sea there is at its best. Now the seasons are not so predictable, the rule can be broken. Travel to Sri Lanka whenever you want; chances are that at any time of the year you will find a climate that suits you somewhere on the island.
When Should you Travel to Sri Lanka…
if the coast is the main factor, then consider the so-called off season of May to September which – except for August-will yield cheaper west coast hotel rates. Yes that is the rainy season, but that is also why the rates are so low, and it seldom rains monsoon style for the whole day, so it is worth a chance.The sea, on the other hand, is rougher on the west coast and is not safe to swim, but the beach hotels all have swimming pools.
But remember. You can travel to Sri Lanka whenever you want. There is always something to do no matter what season you travel to Sri Lanka.
