Sri Lanka’s tropical climate, tea plantations, and golden beaches, make it one of the best contenders for your next family vacation. However, the town of Negombo in specific is a great place to spend a relaxed vacation soaking in some sun while being showered by warm hospitality. Located on the shore of a lagoon that goes by the same name, Negombo was an important trading port to both the Portuguese as well as the Dutch. This beautiful seaside resort is a very short drive from the capital city Colombo and is an ideal retreat for weary travellers looking for some quiet and calm away from the maddening crowds of the city.
The Dutch influence is hard to overlook in the little and quaint town of Negombo, that feels like a blast from the past.
