Being home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, it is no wonder more and more holiday makers are choosing to enjoy beach holidays in Sri Lanka. Awarded as having some of the most beautiful beaches in the world as well as making National Geographics top ten beaches for 2015, Sri lanka will leave you spoilt for choice. There are three main geographical categories these beaches fall under and they are the East, South and West coasts of Sri Lanka and each coast has its unique character and charm with new and different things to explore.
East Coast
Amongst some of the most beautiful beaches to call Sri Lanka home are those that dot the eastern coast of Sri Lanka. Uppuveli, Pasikuda, Nilaveli and Arugam Bay are just a few of the more well- known gems to be found on the east coast. If you are looking for a tranquil and peaceful get-away a beach holiday is the ideal way to relax and unwind.
Down South
Affectionately known as “Down south” by the locals, the south coast of Sri lanka featuring breath taking beaches, colonial townships, monolithic Buddhist shrines and amazing wild life parks is Sri Lanka in a nutshell. Reef diving in Bentota beach, Snorkeling with turtles in Hikkaduwa or whale watching in Unawatuna are just a few of the absolute must see and do things if you are a beach lover and staying down south.
West Coast
The west coast of Sri Lanka is Sri Lanka at its “Most developed” or most westernised with a myriad of guest houses, hotels and accommodation strung across the west coast. Don’t let this discount the beaches on offer though, from Galle face in Colombo, Negombo beach, Maravilla beach and up to Beruwala beach, you will be spoilt for choice as well as the rich culture from the fishing communities that line this coast.
