Sri Lanka enjoys a tropical climate with distinct monsoon seasons affecting different parts of the island. The southwest monsoon (May to September) brings rain to the western and southern coastal areas and the hill country, while the northeast monsoon (October to March) impacts the eastern and northern regions. Central highlands are cooler year-round.
The dry season from December to March is ideal for visiting the southern and western coasts, offering sunny skies perfect for beach activities and wildlife safaris. For the east coast, April to September is best.
