If you are someone thinking of spending a beautiful vacation in Sri Lanka during the month of June 2020, there are, of course, many great destinations on this island to delight you with luxury, serenity, adventure, and many traditions as well. Trincomalee is known to be one of the best destinations for some unbelievably great sessions of swimming and surfing,  and any resort in Trincomalee will provide you with a great holiday vibe.

While staying at a hotel the likes of Jungle Beach by Uga Escapes in June, there is also another important celebration that you can enjoy in Sri Lanka. In June, Sri Lankan Buddhists celebrate the Poson full moon poya festival and you can get the rare opportunity of witnessing their religious celebrations and observances while also exploring some spirituality on a great day.
