From December to March we have the high season, with a great diversity of tourists on its southern beaches. Prices rise due to the dry climate prevailing on the beaches, however, on the eastern coasts the Maha monsoon arrives with abundant rains from November to March, with the rainiest months between November and December.
The months from September to November, adding April, are of average season. April and September are the best months to visit the whole country, the Yala monsoon brings rains to the western coasts. Prices usually rise in April, with the arrival of the New Year.
From May to August the arrival of the low season is marked. The Yala monsoon is inherently present these months, with rainfall in the west of the country. The best weather in these weeks is in the north and east part of the country.rIn general, the prices go down.r
Your travel to Sri Lanka has about 181% the climate impact as your entire yearly budget of CO₂ emissions. This "yearly climate-compatible budget" sets the limit of emissions any person should produce in order to keep global warming to below 2C at about 2 tons of CO2. It includes anything from heating to stay warm and cosy in winter, your daily hot showers, the annoying commute to work, any traveling you do, the production of your yummy food and products you buy – and much more you emit by living your life.
