Negombo is the major beach resort on the coast north of Colombo.
Here, in an world atmosphere of 17th century churches and forts, dozens and dozens of hotels, guest houses restaurants and bars have sprung up along the beach.
Beside luxury hotels are small, very simple guest houses.
What is left from the former fishing village, you can explore at the Negombo lagoon with its many outrigger canoes.
Negombo is situated 40 km north of Colombo, close to the international airport.
Long, palm-fringed, wide, sandy beaches are inviting for long walks and especially for sea bathing.
With its many shops, restaurant and bars the center of Negombo offers to the visitor many distractions.
It is worthwhile to go on a boat trip to the lagoon or one of the old canals dating back to the Dutch colonization.
