Overview
Your journey at a glance
Twelve days on the quieter side of the island, starting at Trincomalee's natural harbour and Pigeon Island, down through the calm waters of Pasikuda and the lagoons around Batticaloa, on to the surf at Arugam Bay, before finishing inland through Ella's hill country and a safari in Yala. For travellers who've done the south coast before and want to see a different Sri Lanka.
Arrival at Bandaranaike International Airport, followed by a private transfer across to the east coast — a long drive, so the pace on day one is intentionally unhurried, with the rest of the afternoon free to settle in near the harbour before exploring begins.

Beach time at Pasikuda, known for water that stays shallow and calm for an unusually long distance from shore — a natural coral shelf makes this one of the more swimmable beaches on the island, well suited to a relaxed day by the water.
