Sri Lanka tourism growth reaches 106,500 arrivals in March 2022

Travellers Team·6 April 20222 min read

SLTDA data shows continued momentum with March recording the third consecutive month of growth in tourist arrivals.

The Sri Lanka Tourism Development Authority reported 106,500 tourist arrivals for March 2022, marking the third consecutive month of growth. The upward trend reflects strengthening international confidence in Sri Lanka as a travel destination and demonstrates the resilience of the island's tourism sector.

As borders across Asia continue reopening and travel confidence returns, Sri Lanka is positioning itself as a key regional destination. The growth in visitor numbers supports local tourism businesses, creates employment, and brings foreign exchange that strengthens the broader economy. These figures are encouraging as the industry looks ahead to the peak tourism season in the coming months.
