Where in Sri Lanka is it better to go on vacation if for the first time there and with a child of 9 years old.
Please advise where the beaches are better, the waves are smaller, closer to excursions. There were only Egypt, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates.

There are good beaches without waves in Unawatuna and Hikkaduwa, where you can also snorkel, see fish and see large ocean turtles. From there, you can go close to see the Galle Fort, the Dondra lighthouse, the Sinharaja rainforest, the Yalla National Park. But it will be very far to go to Sigiriya and Kandy.

If you are closer to Sigiriya and Kandy, then there will be beaches with very large waves, it will be difficult to swim, naturally you don’t look at fish with such a wave and the water will be muddy.

Even if you fly before March, then you can watch whales and dolphins in Mirissa not far from Unawatuna, and I think it will be very interesting for a child and you, too.

We flew Air Arabia, there was about an hour of free time, and back the plane from Colombo was late for 40 minutes, so there was no time.

From the answers:
"If you get closer to Sigiriya and Kandy, then there will be beaches with very big waves..."
From the coast to Kandy - 2.5 hours drive, to Sigiriya - all 4.5 hours ... So, if you plan to get out of the hotel on 1-day trips with a child of 9 years old, you should not even think about excursions there from the coast . Tiring (half a day on the way), and the colonial and Buddhist beauties of Kandy are quite specific for a 2-3 grade student.
And to explore the surroundings of the hotel, if you stay in Hikkaduwa, it's worth it. Galle Fort with its powerful bastions and the Maritime Museum is a 30-40 minute drive. In the other direction, towards Colombo, there is a nursery of sea turtles in Kosgod, as well as a walk along one of the tropical rivers, magnificent in terms of the abundance of impressions. After all, the ecosystem of a tropical river in the mangroves is a lot of birds, reptiles (lizards, snakes, frogs + the opportunity to observe the work of artisans, peasants (cinnamon plantations, coconut processing farms), fishermen ...

Friends and guests of the Forum! Sincere request to respect all who come here and follow the speech.
"Either devour or Dyuti - Free!"
You are going to a country with a written history of 2,500 years, where the cult of healthy eating, Ayurveda with its desire for harmony of soul and body ... On Lanochka with such an attitude to food, you would not be allowed to eat at the table.
So, please, find words worthy of educated Ukrainians, which are called the process of eating food.
And don't forget that you are responding to tourists traveling with children.

We were in Bentota Beach in December. There were waves, but we swam without problems. The food at the hotel is very high quality. The nature is beautiful. I really liked the hotel. The beaches are almost deserted. .
