Beach near Hatton, Sri Lanka

Hatton Travel Guide

Sri Lanka

Hatton is a small city in Sri Lanka, with a population of 15,073, in the country’s central hill country. Its elevated setting gives it a cooler climate than Sri Lanka’s lowlands, with seasonal rainfall.

Travellers can arrive via Castlereigh Reservoir Seaplane Base (NUF), the airport serving Hatton. Hatton is inland, and there are no notable beaches within 40 kilometres, so it is better suited to a hill-country stay than a beach break.
