It is no doubt that Sri Lanka is abundantly blessed by nature, with both beautiful beaches and lush tropical greenery. The country will please visitors visually, while providing them with exciting cultural experiences and a host of things to do and see in this exotic land. While the south and west of the country have been frequented by visitors for years, a recently ended war has left the north and east of the country relatively undiscovered. Today these areas are completely safe for visitors, and amaze both foreigners and locals alike, with the beauty that has been hidden for years.
The east coast of Sri Lanka boasts some of the best beaches and calm and tranquil bays in the world. Visitors can enjoy their tropical vacation by the beautiful waters, basking in the sun and relaxing on the white sands, all along the east coast. Guests can choose to indulge in peaceful relaxation that will revitalize their entire mind and body, or take part in fascinating seaside activities creating memories of a lifetime when on this beautiful coast. To be explored are some remarkable reefs rich with marine life, and secluded spots on the many bays and beaches.
The east coast of Sri Lanka is also magnificently diverse, with rich culture reflected all across the fine surroundings. Inhabited by several local fisher families, guests can enjoy experiencing the sense of community and tradition that is strongly felt among these friendly Sri Lankan folk. There are also several valuable cultural and religious sites along the beaches where travellers can get a feel of what is truly Sri Lankan. When in the island, the east coast is a place travellers must head down to.
To see one of the world’s most envied natural harbours and exquisite surroundings, you should head down to Trincomalee, or stop over in Passekudah for a delightful seaside experience. These are just a few of the amazing destinations that you can visit on the heavenly east coast of the island.
Another aspect that the island prides itself on is the range of breathtaking Sri Lanka boutique hotels that are to be seen all across the country. A Sri Lanka resort that anyone will enjoy, on the amazing east coast, is Maalu Maalu Resort & Spa, which gives visitors a genuine Sri Lankan experience.
