REGIONS OF SRI LANKA

WESTERN SRI LANKA

Negombo, an interesting coastal fishing town and tourist beach resort with significant Dutch heritage, and Colombo, the island’s commercial capital, are often used as 1 or 2 night stopovers at the beginning or end of  a holiday in Sri Lanka as they are close to Colombo International Airport. Stay Longer in Negombo to enjoy the luxuries of the Jetwing Beach Hotel. Colombo is great for culture, shopping and the magnificent Galle Face Hotel (Guest list reads Mountbatten, Hirohito, Nixon…..) 

TROPICAL BEACHES AND RAINFOREST OF SOUTH WEST SRI LANKA

A string of fabulous beaches run all the way along the south-west coast. A variety of hotels blend in with fishing village with two exquisite boutique hotels. Bentota and Beruwela together from Sri Lanka’s principal beach resort. Lush tropical landscapes around inland, including Sinharaja rainforest, Sri Lanka’s only surviving virgin rainforest (also a World Heritage Site)

we will discuss more about these areas in future posts.
