Luxury Holidays in Negombo

Golden beaches and fishing village charm

Known as “Little Rome” on account of its churches and statues, Negombo is equally renowned for its beautiful beaches, safe seas and fishing village charm.

Set on the western coast of Sri Lanka, the long stretch of idyllic sand offers a variety of watersports and fishing opportunities, with local fishermen bringing in the day’s catch for you to enjoy at sunset in one of the town’s excellent seafood restaurants.

Spend the days lounging under swaying palms, or head out to sea on a diving or fishing excursion – still done the old way with outrigger canoes and other traditional watercraft. Indeed, water is key to Negombo, with the Dutch-era harbour and extensive canal providing a great way to see the city.
