Exploring the Best of South Coast Sri Lanka

1 week in the south quickly turned to 2+ weeks, let’s say it was haard to leave 🥲 Here’s everything you need to know to explore the best of the south coast of Sri Lanka (save this for your trip 🧡) 👇 BEST TIME TO VISIT The best time to visit the south is between November-April. I found late March/ early April to be a good time because I quickly learned the season was coming to an end, it very much felt like the shoulder season (less people, less expensive) the only downside is the weather was changing and most afternoons were cloudy.
