About Sri Lanka for visitors

Sri Lanka is a teardrop island in the Indian Ocean packed with beaches, tea plantations, and ancient Buddhist temples. Most visitors circle the coastline and highlands in a week or two, mixing tropical retreats with mountain trekking and cultural heritage sites steeped in centuries of history.

Nearly all international flights arrive at Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB) south of Colombo. Immigration lines move fairly quickly, and the airport is modern with clear signage; expect a straightforward process unless you arrive during peak tourist season.
