FAQs on Beaches in Negombo

Is Negombo worth staying at?

For the first or last night of a trip, yes, and that is mostly what it is for. It is twenty minutes from the airport, which beats fighting into Colombo after a long flight.

Is the beach any good?

It is long and wide, but it is a working coastline with fishing boats, and the water is not the clear blue of the south. Come for convenience rather than for the swimming.

What is there to do?

The fish market at dawn, which is genuinely worth setting an alarm for, the Dutch canal, and boat trips on the Negombo lagoon. The town is strongly Catholic and has a striking number of churches.

How far is the airport?

About twenty minutes by road in normal traffic, which is why so many flights are bookended with a Negombo night. Colombo, by contrast, can take well over an hour.

When is the best time?

December to March, in line with the west coast. The southwest monsoon from May brings rain and rougher water, though Negombo stays functional as a transit base year-round.
