Best Time to Visit Sri Lanka
If you’re eyeing Sri Lanka it’s important to remember that although fairly small in size, the northeastern and southwestern sides of this island have different seasons. April marks a slow end of the dry season on the southwest coast whilst it’s the beginning of the dry season on the northeastern part of the island. So if you’re after a round trip of the idyllic island you’re most likely to catch warm and sunny days across Sri Lanka in April.
Cost
Sri Lanka is a cheap country to travel in, especially compared to places like Thailand. Some travel companies offer combo trips taking in India and the Maldives too if you would like to see more countries in the region.
