A haven for wildlife lovers, Sri Lanka has more national parks than you can count. However, if you want to witness something truly spectacular, add Minneriya and Kaudulla National Park to your travel itinerary. Once a year, during the peak of the dry season between August and October, you can enjoy front-row seats to one of the world's biggest gatherings of wild Asian elephants at these parks.

As many as 300 🐘 elephants have been seen at one time, and while their migration is motivated by a search for water, as they congregate you will have the chance to observe them as they socialise, bathe and find mates.

Speak to our team to ensure you witness this amazing wildlife phenomenon.

Considering a getaway in Sri Lanka in August? If you love deep-diving into the cultural fabric of the destinations that you visit, Kandy is the place to be towards the end of the month.

The hill country capital of Kandy hosts the annual Esala Perehra in July or August each year (in 2023, it's set to happen in the latter half of August). Expect plenty of fanfare, from traditional drummers to Kandyan fire dancers and plenty more!

This religious procession is a colourful festival, and one that holds deep significance to the Buddhist community in Sri Lanka, as it is centred on the Sacred Tooth Relic of Buddha.

Speak to our team for a personalised and expertly curated Sri Lanka tour in August that covers the Esala Perehera in Kandy as well as historic highlights in the Cultural Triangle.

Visiting Sri Lanka in the summer? If you've got your eye on the beach, the best weather is found on the east coast instead of the south-west.

There's no shortage of summer season water-sports to be enjoyed along Sri Lanka’s east coastline, from fun-filled family-friendly options like snorkelling and jet-skiing to world-class surfing in Arugam Bay and shipwreck diving off the coast of Trincomalee.

There are also opportunities for water-sports like kite-surfing and white-water rafting elsewhere on the island at this time of the year.
