Weather, when to go, What to do?

As the month of October the North East moonson continue to kick of the whole island, bringing high rainfall in the hill country as well as the rainforest. November provide at least some kind of sunny moments in the downsouth and western coasts where the rain can be less, but if you are a beach lovers, this month again it isn’t the best one to come. Get yourself into the Cultural area to re-visit the roots of Sri Lanka Culture or even Galle which offer beach as well as cultural monuments to walk through, same if you know the rainfall will be present daily. As November has been until now the wettest month to visit Sri Lanka.

Grab a 4×4 and venture into some of National Parks as Udawalawe, Wilpattu, Sinharaja to spotted some amazing species between 2 rains

The sea remain extremely choppy, apart of some area in the downsouth (still can be dangerous to swim into it).

LOOK FOR BEACH LIFESTYLE?

Try around Galle, Weligama, Mirissa, Mannar, Jaffna, Trincomale, Nilaveli & Arugam Bay as if the weather is bad, you still can go visit some beautiful temples or jump into a 4x4 safari ride.

CULTURAL CEREMONIES?
