Local Time in Sri Lanka:
The " teardrop " of the Indian Ocean, Sri Lanka offers a world of exotic contrasts.
The best weather on the southwest coast, is from November to March.
The southwest monsoon, from May to August, brings potential downpours with rough seas.
Although the sun will often shine for days on end, it is a time when cheap deals for luxury holidays to Sri Lanka are available in low season.
A golden coastline of glorious beaches stretching south from Negombo to Hambantota, dotted with holiday resorts ranging from luxury and all inclusive to the low-key. All resorts in Sri Lanka offer a wide range of water sports, be it windsurfing, snorkeling amid superb coral, or deep-sea fishing.
But there are plenty more things to do on your holidays, from visiting turtle farms near Bentota and traditional mask carvers in Ambalangoda to exploring the historic Dutch city of Galle. There are National Parks with water birds, elephants and crocodiles, and ancient cities such as Sigirya, soaring high above the jungle: a spectacular citadel from the 5th century AD.
