Thinking about a trip to Sri Lanka.
My questions:
What is the climate like there? If I have hypertension and arrhythmia, can I stay there?
Is there white sand anywhere in Sri Lanka?
If I buy a tour from an agency, what will I need to pay extra for? It's not like in Egypt - I paid for the tour and you can not spend a single cent?
And lastly, how much money do you need to carry with you on average?

With hypertension and arrhythmia, there is no difference where to go, because. risk factors you will find everywhere - these are pressure drops in flight and temperature differences at home and at the resort.

I do not agree! There is a difference and it is very big. In a hot, humid climate, it is very bad to travel with cardiovascular diseases.

Well, that's what it says, dear. Where is he hot? Humidity - yes, it does, but the heat is deadly for the cores. With such a "bouquet" the most suitable place to relax is Jurmala.

Again, I don't agree. My elderly mother - a core and hypertensive patient feels great in October in Turkey, the temperature of water and air is very comfortable. But under no circumstances will I drag her to Southeast Asia :)

If we are talking about health, then you need to start with the local therapist. Maybe the topikstarter has nothing to worry about.

For TS questions
1) The climate is temperate. Those. not as dry as in Egypt and not as wet as in Turkey.
2) There is absolutely no white like in the Maldives. The entire west coast has reddish-black sand. Moreover, from Negombo to Chilow it turns black, to the south of Negombo it brightens. The lightest (beige) color in the South (Unawatuna). Nice beaches in Trincomalee, but the tourist zone is really bad there. A couple of hotels around.
3) While the visa (stamp) is put free of charge, but it was planned to introduce an electronic visa worth $ 50 from the New Year until the law was passed. It is often said that on the way back you will have to pay an airport tax ($10). For two visits, no one took it. If you have All, you don't need to pay more. But keep in mind, Sri is not a country of vegetable rest. There are no animations, beach activities, discos and other things. There is something to see in this country, so spending will be on excursions if desired.
4) In local cafes, away from tourist places, you can order 3 servings of rice with seafood for $ 4-6. Worth the tuk tuk ride. If you do not go on excursions, $ 50 is enough. If on an excursion, then only a complex ticket for the triangle costs $ 70 (individually $ 3x25)

Thank you very much for the detailed answer! I just would like to clarify what kind of "ticket to the triangle" is?

The government of Sri Lanka, realizing the need to preserve its rich cultural heritage, asked UNESCO in 1978 to include the country in a worldwide program of assistance for the restoration and conservation of ancient monuments, which led to the creation of the Cultural Triangle Foundation. In October of the same year, the project was approved at the UNESCO General Assembly, and the architectural monuments of Sri Lanka were recognized as world cultural heritage. Three cardinal points of the triangle, within which there are monuments of 2000 years ago, include: Anuradhapura - the first ancient capital of Sri Lanka in the north of the island; Polonnaruwa - the medieval capital in the east of the country; Kandy is the last bastion of the rulers of an independent Sinhalese state in the center of the island.

Visiting the complex in Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa monastery in Dambulla and the palace and park complex in Sigiriya.
If you buy all at once, the price is $ 50
Pollonaruwa, Sigiriya, Dambulla - if separately, then $ 25 for each visit

So it turns out that "in one fell swoop" you can go around all of Sri Lanka at once? A very tempting excursion ...
