Cultural Triangle
Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle stretches from Anuradhapura at its northern point, to Polonnaruwa in the east and Kandy in the south. The region covers approximately one thousand square miles, incorporating five of the country’s seven UNESCO World Heritage sites, with the Sigiriya rock fortress and the cave temple of Dambulla at its heart. Explore scores of temples, ruins and dagobas scattered throughout the region, and roam through the Minneriya National Park, which hosts the largest annual gathering of Asian elephants in the world, finding wonder in a new wilderness.

DAY 4 - 7
East Coast Beach
Sri Lanka's relatively undeveloped east coast is a tropical beach haven, especially between April and September, with Passekudah the top pick of the bunch. The reef-protected bay allows for excellent swimming compared to the wilder waters of the south, and you can explore the surrounding area by bike, visiting local fishing villages and colourful markets as yet unseen by most visitors. Arugam Bay is a blissful beach further down the coast where surfing takes centre stage during high season, and there are opportunities to explore Kumana National Park, the nearby temples, and embark on lagoon safaris through the mangroves.
