The goal of this series is to give you an introduction to the country and the neighboring Maldives starting with Sri Lankas tea region, temples and the rock fortress of sigiriya in this episode.
After arrival we are traveling from Colombo to Kandy by train to take in all the impressive views along the way. In Kandy I go on a river excursion to spot birds along the Mahaweli river before visiting the temple of the tooth in the royal palace complex of the former Kingdom of Kandy.
The tea region around Nuwara Eliya is close to Kandy - you should go there by taking the train from Kandy to Ella. Make sure to visit a tea factory, too!
In the north of Central Sri Lanka the Lion Rock Sigiriya is definitely a Must-Visit. Another one is the Ancient City of Polonnaruwa and the Kaudulla National Park.
This part of the trip was executed within 2weeks by using tuk tuk, buses, boats and trains - following I list all the places I visited & Things to do in Central Sri Lanka:

Sri Lanka - The 7 most beautiful beaches in Sri Lanka
Best time to visit Sri Lanka for beach holidays
The great thing: this country is a year-round holiday destination due to the fact that the monsoon is different depending on the area.
If you want to go to the south and west coast of Sri Lanka the best time to visit is from December to April. For the east coast the time between April and September is the best time. To make things easier we added a recommendation when to go to each of the listed beach spots below.
1) Beruwala & Bentota
This very long sand beach is without any doubt one of the most beautiful beaches in Sri Lanka. Besides the fact that it is palm-lined it is a great destionation for families as the water is very shallow here. Moreover Beruwala is located very close to the capital Colombo (only a 2h drive).
Best time to visit Beruwala:
October to mid of April
Things to do in Beruwala & Bentota:
The Masjid-ul-Abrar is the oldest mosque of Sri Lanka // make a river safari at the Bentota river, located south of Beruwala and spot crocodiles, birds and varanidaes // water activities like snorkeling and diving at the nearby reef // turtle research center Kosgoda (a short drive south)
2) Hikkaduwa
Hikkaduwa is a very popular beach and is situated 100km south of Colombo. Especially during the high season this is the place to go for party lovers as there are many clubs and bars nearby.
Best time to visit Hikkaduwa:
October to mid of April
Things to do in Hikkaduwa:
The nearby reef is a great spot for snorkeling
3) Unawatuna & Galle
The old town and the Fort of Galle are part of the UNESCO World Heritage and absolutely worth a visit. Pastel colored houses with wooden patios and small shops selling jewelry and handicrafts. Don't miss out to climb the walls to enjoy the view to the sea and watch sea turtles.
Galle itself doesn't have great beaches – therefore you should go for the short busride to Unawatuna.
Best time to visit Galle:
October to mid of April
Things to do in Galle:
Old town of Galle // climb the lighthouse for the best views // go running at the jungle beach of Unawatuna in the morning and watch the cute animals!
4) Mirissa
This beach is much calmer than Unawatuna – it is less touristy and offers colorful sunset as well as a beach full of beautiful mussels and stones.
Best time to visit Mirissa:
October to mid of April
Things to do in Mirissa:
Most tourists are coming for whale watching. You can book the expeditions mostly directly at your accommodation. If you are lucky you'll come to see blue whales // Watch the famous Stick-Fishermen doing their job in the evening at the rocks close to the beach
5) Yala
he beach of Yala is the only one in this list where you are not able to go for a swim due to dangerous currents. Nevertheless it is a great spot for a walk along the beach and watch the power of the water. Even more exciting: right next door you are able to see elephants, crocodile and even leopards on a safari!
Best time to visit Yala:
April – August (best time for safaris)
Things to do in Yala:
The wildlife safaris are the number one reason for a visit to Yala – beside the animals the huge park is also impressive in matters of its landscape. I recommend staying for several days and going on more than just one safari!
6) Arugam Bay
Arugam Bay is a surf beach on the east coast. As it is a predominantly muslim area you should wear long clothes if you're a woman. Regarding the prices Arugam Bay is much more expensive than the beaches on the west coast.
Best time to visit Arugam Bay:
April till September
Things to do in Arugam Bay:
If you walk south along the beach for about an hour you'll get to a lake area with crocodiles and elephant // In the morning you can watch the fisherman doing their work at the beach
7) Uppuveli, Nilaveli & Trincomalee
Uppuveli Beach is situated at the outskirts of Trincomalee and offers wide beaches this is why the majority of the hotels and resorts can be found here. If you manage to get up early you'll be rewarded with a beautiful sunrise at the beach.
Nilaveli is located a bit more out of town and therefore it is much quiter here. You can do excursions to Pigeon Island from both beaches, the coral reef is considered to be the best snorkeling spot in Sri Lanka – a wide range of exotic animals can be found here (even reef sharks!).
Best time to visit Trincomalee:
April till September is the best time but also during the monsoon season you can be lucky. I was there at the beginning of November, only excursions have been quite hard to find or have not been possible.
Things to do in Trincomalee:
Pigeon Island (coral reef, book tours right at the beach) // Whale & Delfin Watching in the bay of Trincomalee // Fort Frederick & Koneswaram temple
