Sri Lanka is often referred to as “the pearl of the Indian Ocean.” No wonder, because there is a great deal to discover on this tropical island with around 21 million inhabitants: Dream beaches, cultural treasures, rich biodiversity, and hearty cooking.
Full of breathtaking natural, historic, and religious monuments. There are many incredible things to do in Dambulla, and not a beach in the vicinity.
Sri Lanka’s tropical beaches are unanimously adored. Crafted from a 1340km (833-mile) coastline, its countless topographically varied beaches, coves and bays attract sun-seekers, fun lovers and surfers throughout the year. Wildlife plays its part too – beaches are vital nesting grounds for endangered marine turtles, while blue whales are sighted at sea.
