Trinco, and the surrounding area, has a lot going for it, the area is home to a beautiful patch of sand in all Sri Lanka, the gloriously tranquil Nilaveli beach. Jaffna, a city located in Sri Lanka’s northern peninsula, has a long (sometimes troubled) history. Archaeological evidence suggest that this region was inhabited since the 1000 BC. Today, Jaffna is working hard to make a comeback in all sectors, especially tourism. Places are opening up and locals are getting used to having foreigners around. This presents us with a host of wonderful things to do in Jaffna, most of them without the usual tourist crowds that you will find in South Sri Lanka.
