Climatically the driest and best seasons are from December to March on the west and south coasts and in the Hill Country, and from May to September on the east coast. December to March is also the time when most foreign tourists come, the majority of them escaping the European winter.
气候最干燥的季节是是12月至3月,这也是在西部和南部沿海和丘陵地区旅游的最佳季节,而5月至9月则是到东海岸旅行的最佳季节。十二月至三月是斯里兰卡的旅游旺季,大量的外国游客纷纷来此,其中大部分是为了逃离欧洲的冬天。
Out of season travel has its advantages - it's less crowded, and many airfares and accommodation prices go right down. Nor does it rain all the time. Reefs may protect a beach area and make swimming quite feasible at places like Hikkaduwa, which during the monsoon can be quite pleasant.
在淡季出行有它的好处 - 它不那么拥挤,许多机票和住宿都有很大的折扣。而且也并使这时候的所有天气都是雨天的。珊瑚礁可以保护海滩游泳区,在有季风吹拂的地方诸如Hikkaduwa,便可以拥有十分美好的旅游享受。
