Southern Coastal Belt (season - October to April)
The best season for diving & swimming on the southern coast is roughly November to April.The spectacularly scenic bays beaches of the south coast are among the finest in the world. Unawatuna Bay Beach, Tangalla Bay Beach & Mirissa Bay Beach are the main beaches, each with long sweeps of sand.
Matara & particularly Galle with their colonial origins provide some historical interest. While we could travel along the south coast within few hours, each bay beach tempts us to spend days & again days hopping from village to village & enjoying the laid-back lifestyle. To the interior from the coast are several vast & impressive nature reserves, including Ruhuna Yala National Park, Bundala National Park & Uda Walawe National Park.
