Diving
I have a question: I have never been to SHL. That's why I don't have any information. The one on the website is missing. So. Where is the best place to dive in SL? We are going in October at the beginning of the month. The task is difficult. I need to dive, my wife to relax and travel on excursions.

You yourself have already answered everything when choosing the area of u200bu200bSHL - this is Hikkaduwa. Maybe nearby in Unawatuna.

Thank you very much!!! Now I will look)) The direction is new for me. Therefore, there are a lot of "stupid" questions)). I was talking to my diving instructor about SL. He replied that I would not count on a lot of interesting things. It's not like the Red Sea. But after Thailand, I can say that there are many interesting things in the muddy water of Pattaya. At least the sunken ships.

This is immediately, I promise)) we would still get there. We still can't decide on a hotel. I want to have something to look at. We don't need any animations there. Follow this nonsense to the other end of the earth. stupid to say the least. from the experience of visiting Thailand. I understand that all the hotels of the triple or quadruple are almost the same. But I want to find my zest for tolerable money on the first line.

I got through on the phone, and this is the answer - the rest was in Benton, the Benton Club Hotel, I liked it very much. Not like in the Red Sea, but there were charms. I dived for two days, my wife let me go so much.
You can also dive in Hikkaduwa, but he did not dive there.

Question for nickname motor_25: I understand that you need to dive. But where to live, we will not decide. Based on finances ... Amaya Reef 3 * I really liked it. And my wife said that there is a municipal beach, not a hotel one. I already broke my head from searching. I don’t want to run into Sultan Beach from Hurgadovka to ShL))

I looked at the hotel for myself, but did not dare to go to Sri Lanka at all.
There are almost no private beaches (at all, even 5 *), tramps are everywhere (beach fights and locals).
Yes, actually, there’s no reason to, I flew to the Maldives, it turned out cheaper. I recommend it.
At the moment (and motor 25 too), FUN island 3 * on 18.08 (departure 17.08), for 7 nights Transaero, TEZ, SPO No. 207 for two FB 2433 $ with flight.

I am very grateful to you for your help and care! But the Maldives is not yet in the plan)) after the repair in the apartment, finances sing romances. They just wanted to take a break for two years. Go sightseeing and diving. wife treats Egypt badly. And I'm the opposite. SHL just solves many problems))

Quotes from reviews:
"Everyone has thermoses in the rooms, they are filled daily by employees, but the water is cold, but if you want to drink tea, take a thermos to the dining room and feel free to ask for a pour, or pour it yourself."
"The hotel has 2 pools and a beach; sunbeds and towels are free. The territory is fenced off from the ocean with a wire mesh - do not swear; as it turned out, this is very useful - it protects from monitor lizards and locals eager to offer you scarves and excursions. By the way, according to the experience of several tourists, excursions from "beach-boys" are better not to take, the reviews were very angry.
"There is very little "entertainment"; there is usually live music at dinner, a disco once or twice a week. The gym is small and equipped with rather outdated equipment, it's easier to go to the lawn next to it and do exercises :)"
"a 10-minute walk along the beach there are 2 big hotels, Tangerine and Royal Palms (it seems), you can go there for entertainment :)"
"They cook very tasty, especially soups and rice; as for pasta (pasta) - usually undercooked, that's perhaps the only minus. I was very pleased with freshly brewed coffee in unlimited quantities, for breakfast and dinner (however, a couple of times it still seemed diluted)"

Thank you very much!!! We have already read all this in the primary sources)) We are not sitting idly by. There are still exactly two months before departure, but it feels like going tomorrow. It's hot when you're in a suitcase mood)) When we went to Egypt for the first time, we took umbrellas with us.))) Now we remember and laugh! :) And there is not enough information about Hibiscus. Probably, either the hotel is not very popular, or the country is still little promoted.

We really liked this instruction.)) I re-read it several times! And I want to send this creation of the pen to Zadornov.)) It was necessary to bring the locals like that !!! And our Soviet people know how to do this)) I quote verbatim:
Separately, I would like to write about beach-fights. Beware of the locals (Nissa and there were two other names I don't remember),
we went with a beach-boy from the neighboring hotel Raja, so Nissa did not give us rest, then called names, then intimidated,
and when they went to the ocean to swim, he shouted that sharks were swimming. On the eve of departure, he stood at the fence and shouted,
that our plane will crash... Another couple, vacationing at the same time, went with them on a so-called fishing trip,
in addition to the fact that Nissa did not go with them, but local natives who did not know the language went, so they even got a bait
they didn’t give it, they just sat and freaked out))). In general, it ended in failure, refusing to pay for a semblance of fishing,
they were forced to give money by threats and holding their wife as a hostage... I even had to call the consulate....
In general, use the services of other beach-boys, for example, if you go to the Marmaid Hotel, Raja works there, very decent
and considerate. And on the opposite side, Asanka, also decent, at least they will not deceive and
