In this travel guide, we will tell you more about Trincomalee in Sri Lanka. What are the highligts and hotspots of this beachtown in the North of Sri Lanka. And where to eat and sleep in Trincomalee?
We backpack in Sri Lanka in November, a transitional month, in which the east of the country is confronted with the monsoon period and the south is starting to get nice weather. However, when we are here, it is slightly different and the east currently has the best weather. And so we decide to go to Trincomalee, a city in the east of Sri Lanka with beautiful beaches.
Trincomalee: the most beautiful beaches in Sri Lanka
Trincomalee is located in the northeast of Sri Lanka. Due to its location, the city forms a natural harbour, but that is not the reason for our visit. This city is surrounded by vast sandy beaches that lie both north and south of Trincomalee. The most beautiful beaches in Sri Lanka can be found here. Kilometres of beaches with white sand, palm trees and warm water in the sea, a true paradise.
Despite these beautiful beaches, Trincomalee has not yet been flooded by tourism. This is because there has been war here for years, although we didn’t see any remains of that war. So it is quiet here, but you will find plenty of good facilities such as hotels and nice restaurants.
