The East Coast of Sri Lanka is rated as one of Asia’s top dive sites and offers outstanding experiences for all skill levels. As the island essentially sits atop a huge sandbank that drops 3000m into deep ocean you’ll usually find shallow sand or rock bottoms, but you can also dive on walls and drop-offs. Because you’re seldom far from deep water, opportunities for encounters with pelagics, sharks and other inhabitants of the open ocean abound.
