Trincomalee is a high-quality port with a long history on the east coast of Lanka. Trincomalee is located in the northwest of Trincomalee Bay and in the northeast is the Bay of Bengal. There is the island of Trincomalee in the east, and there is no big wave. (I feel like the waves are big when I go out to sea.) The biggest feature of the pavilion is that, just off the shore, the continental shelf is down, jumping directly to the submarine plain more than 2,000 meters deep. Trincomalee is definitely a good place to dive. It is also because of this location, where you will see the largest creature in the ocean. I came here not to dive, but to see the blue whale. Yes, blue whale. Generally, whales say they want to go to Mirissa. But there was no whale watching in September. Tingkomari has it. Watching the whales is a bit of a concern. It is best to bring a waterproof camera. The boats that go out to sea are small and are all speedboats. It is basically a state of full body drenching. So it is best to wear a swimsuit. The blue whales are also very long. I will leave at dawn and return to the hotel at 11 o'clock. First, sunscreen should be done well. It is soaked, the body is soaked and dried, and then soaked. The face is a feeling of peeling off the salt. Second, if you are seasick, it is recommended to give up this activity. Absolutely thrown into your stomach and vomit. I don't usually get seasick and I haven't been fainted at the end. Just tanned into a dog.

Go to the east of Lanka and look at the sea in Trincomalee. The main goal of coming to Trincomalee is to whale watching in the sea. Before going to sea, this beach has already made me interested in it. You know, I only wandered in the car for half an afternoon. Trincomalee was once the UK's important naval base in Asia (before 1957) and is now the country's largest military, commercial, and fishing port. The harbor is deep and the inlet channel is 36.6 meters deep. There are 5 piers in the port for large vessels. Commercial port throughput is not large, exporting tea, mineral sand, agricultural and sideline products; importing grain, cement and industrial raw materials. There is a ship repair shop. Colombo - the terminus of the Trincomalee Railway. There are national naval training schools and air force training bases. Beautiful scenery, tourist city. There is a thousand pillar temple with 1,600 stone pillars inside. It has been destroyed, but the remains are still a holy place.
