Choosing the Right Time to Visit Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka, the 25^th largest island in the world is ringed by a palm-fringed coastline and tropical air, welcoming a large number of globetrotters every year. However, it is also crucial that travellers are aware of the best times of the year to visit the best hotels in Colombo, Galle, Kandy, Negombo etc. While April is a preferred month to tour and reside at city hotels like Mandarina Colombo, if you wish to taste a bit of Sri Lankan culture, the country celebrates festivals and traditions that spread all year long.

In the month of August 2022, visitors will be able to partake in the experience of the Kandy Esala Perahera, which is one of the country’s foremost religious celebrations. However, the Eastern and Northern areas often become crowded between the months of April and September, avoiding the Maha Monsoon Season. Therefore, The Travel Magazine Ltd. Recommends August and September as the best time of the year for a family beach vacation in the East or North.
