June
June marks the full swing of the southwest monsoon, impacting the western and southern coasts of Sri Lanka. However, the eastern and northern regions enjoy dry and pleasant weather, making it the perfect time to explore activities on the east coast. This month offers the best marine adventures in the east and continued opportunities for wildlife safaris in lush national parks.

- Wilpattu National Park: This park continues to offer excellent opportunities to spot leopards, elephants, and sloth bears amidst its lakes and dense forests.
- Wasgamuwa National Park: A beautiful time to visit, with lush greenery after the rains, making it ideal for birdwatching and elephant sightings.
- Hurulu Eco Park: A quieter option for safari-goers looking for elephants and rich biodiversity in the drier regions.
