So Adventurous-So Sri Lanka

With varying climates and Geography packed into a small island, Sri Lanka offers a range of adventures from the top of the mountains to the depths of the oceans.

 

Other than taking a dip in the oceans or snorkeling, scuba diving and surfing are the most popular beach sports in the country. Scuba diving has long history in the country. With the oceans filled with coral gardens, multitude of exotic fishes and ancient wrecks, Sri Lanka offers one of the best diving experiences in the world. Although comparatively new to the country, surfing too has made its mark in the Southern and Eastern coasts of the island for the last twenty five years. The sea around Sri Lanka is also one of the most challenging marine game fishing locations while white water rafting, Kayaking and canoeing are some of the relatively new water sports practiced in the country.

With multitude of roads winding through expanding mountains, lush green forests, paddy fields, parks and sleepy villages, Sri Lanka also offers many opportunities to keen hikers and trekkers.
