Highlights of Sri Lanka
A Dutch fort full of bakeries and boutiques, and the bays running east and west of it. This is where most journeys end — deliberately, so the last days are spent swimming rather than travelling.
November to April is the dry season, and the sea is calmest for swimming and snorkelling. Outside it the swell picks up and some of the smaller bays empty out entirely.
