Trincomalee, Sri Lanka
Trincomalee, or Trinco, is a historic port city that offers a peaceful contrast to Sri Lanka’s more developed west coast. With calm turquoise waters, ancient temples, and vibrant marine life, it’s a haven for both spiritual seekers and beach lovers. The area’s calm seas are ideal for snorkeling, diving, and whale watching.
