Hotels in Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia
Sri Lanka's Eastern Province stretches along the northeast coast, with a tropical climate that brings scorching hot summers around 90°F (32°C) and milder winters near 70°F (21°C) - perfect for year-round visits if you plan right. It's famous for world-class surf breaks at Arugam Bay, where the dry season from May to September brings consistent waves, and for the ancient Buddhist temples like the Koneswaram Temple in Trincomalee, perched on a cliff overlooking the Indian Ocean. During the wet season from October to April, you can explore the bustling fish markets in Batticaloa or hike through the Gal Oya National Park to spot elephants, while the dry months let you dive or snorkel the coral reefs off Pigeon Island.
