The Best Time to Visit Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka is a year-round destination with guaranteed sunshine and excellent weather no matter when you choose to travel.
The Southern and West coasts are our favourite between October and March when they are warm and dry. During the summer months, when monsoon rains sweep much of the country, the Eastern and north coasts come into their own bringing these relatively quieter and culturally more authentic parts to life.

Two week holiday Sri Lanka & MaldivesTransindus Holidays to Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka fits most people’s idea of what a tropical idyll should look like: and a holiday here includes glorious, golden-sand beaches along the coast; wildlife-rich savannah inland; and a tract of misty mountains at the island’s core. Sri Lanka provide a superbly exotic and luxurious backdrop for a traditional Asian culture with deep and sophisticated roots.
Whatever kind of holiday to Sri Lanka you have in mind where a honeymoon or family trip, it’s worth experiencing the wonders of the so-called ‘Golden Triangle’, a couple of hours’ drive from the capital, Colombo, where some of Asia’s greatest archeological treasures rise from a vast, scrub-covered plain.
Further south and east, amid the lush slopes of the ‘Tea Country’, you can savour expansive vistas of rolling plantations from beautifully renovated British-era tea bungalows. The city of Kandy is the centre of this verdant hill tract and the site of the ‘Temple of the Tooth’ – the best place to experience traditional Sinhalese ritual, music, dance and costume.
Wildlife and birding enthusiasts will find plenty of inspiration in the island’s national parks, which shelter thriving populations of birds as well as wild elephant and leopards, while the cobalt waters off shore ranks among the best in the world to see blue & sperm whales and spinner dolphins.
