And the simple but honest answer is, “Oh, hell YEAH !”

 

Sri Lanka is considered a year-round tourist destination which can be visited anytime of a year, with its tropical climate and diverse attractions. The following facts will convince you why it’s just not “a” but “the best” year-round travel destination.

Is Sri Lanka the best year-round travel destination ?

Sri Lanka, also known as the “Pearl of the Indian Ocean,” is a beautiful island country located in South Asia with a rich history, diverse culture, stunning landscapes, and unique experiences to offer.

Is it ok to travel to Sri Lanka in Summer –  May to October

 

May to October is considered the off-season or the southwest monsoon season in Sri Lanka, which means the weather can be quite unpredictable with frequent rainfall, especially in the southwestern part of the country. But fortunately, apart from southwestern part, the rest of the country is not affected by rainfall during this time where you can experience the ancient cities and wildlife sanctuaries. Only significant thing you will miss is the southern beaches; but hey, it wouldn’t be a problem at all. Why ? because you can shift your beach stay to the eastern coast which has more beautiful beaches with light-golden sand and crystal blue water.

 

This paradise island nation, located in the Indian Ocean, offers a range of activities and experiences for travelers throughout the year.
