East Coast

Trincomalee

Port naturel, plages et l’une des meilleures bases de la côte est.

Pourquoi visiter Trincomalee

Trincomalee est une destination majeure de la côte est pour les voyageurs qui veulent des plages, des activités marines et une logique saisonnière différente du sud et de l’ouest.

Its importance comes from both its deep natural harbour and the religious and colonial history associated with the Koneswaram area.

Meilleure période

The east coast is generally strongest between May and September, when the sea is calmer and beach conditions are more reliable.

Accès

It is usually reached from the Cultural Triangle by road and pairs well with Nilaveli, Pigeon Island, and east-coast beach stays.
