Sri Lanka Family Holidays 2025/2026

There could be some doubt about planning family holidays in Sri Lanka considering the island country's overwhelming marketing as tropical beach paradise, but much to the surprise of all, Sri Lanka has everything that a family would strive for, and world-class family-friendly resorts top the list! To spend a memorable stint in Sri Lanka with your family, vie for a seaside resort located along its gorgeous shores.

Add boogie-boarding, dolphin watching and whale watching tours to your list for a complete family-oriented fun at these beaches. A family trip to Sri Lanka is much more than just being a beachcomber. Ride an elephant to admire the astounding jungle scenery of the country. These slow yet splendid safaris are available through national parks such as Kaudulla National Park and Minneriya National Park. Feeding an elephant and interacting with turtles are other highlights on the lists of family vacationers!! Plan a family trip to Sri Lankan hill stations like Ella and Nuwara Eliya, and enjoy a scenic train ride between them.
