Mount Lavinia. COLOMBO. Sr Lanka.
Located just out of the city Mount Lavinia is a nice beach side suburb of Colombo and is where I decided to stay as I found a great hostel by the Beach.. The beach side has a few different restaurants and bars and a couple of good nights were shared with fellow travellers having some cold beers and watching the sunsets in this great location. at Jo Jo's on the beach The local beach restaurants were good and served good food...The beach was just a five minute walk from the Hostel and although it looked good I was warned of extreme undercurrents and although very hot nobody was swimming here... This was a great location to spend some five days.I also returned here after my trip to Negombo before catching the train to Kandy. all the time I was here the weather was very hot...also many excursions into Colombo and its sites.some days though just too hot to be in the city.The train station at Mount Lavinia was in walking distance and was the cheapest and easiest way to get to Colombo City and back the train line ran right alongside the ocean and very scenic...trains were usually very crowded ..and hot..
