Hey everyone! I'm planing to arrive to Sri Lanka in July and then go to India. Does anyone know what is the best way to go to India from Sri Lanka? Are there cheap boats or smth?
Anyone wants to join? I'm planning to go towards Goa and Bombay
How to from Sri Lanka to India
It is a good idea that you have planned to visit South India.
From Columbo you can reach south indian cities--Chennai, Trivandrum Tiruchy, Cochin only by air. Unfortunately there are no boats operating between these two countries presently.
I have heard there is a Laxuary Boat service from Colombo to Vizhinjam organised by
Kerala Government. Just check with some Travel agents in Sri Lanka and you will get the
information.
Why you want to Bombay and Goa. There are so many places in South India perticularly in
Kerala, interesting to you..... There are backwaters, beaches, plantations, wild life, art,
culture etc. in Kerala and living cost is comparatively law. If you wish to visit Kerala... you
are welcome to get in touch with me.. I shall provide possible help.

No boat service between Sri Lanka and India? That's shocking. Why not?
I'm afraid I can't give any advice, then, because I made the reverse journey (Bombay - Goa - Kerala - Sri Lanka) back in the 1970s. Obviously much has changed. It's all fascinating as long as you have your health.
