On arrival at Palali International Airport, you will be transferred to Trincomalee and check in at your hotel. Later, proceed to visit the sacred Thirukoneshwaram Temple, also known as Koneshwaram Kovil, an ancient shrine built by Sage Agastya and revered as Dakshina Kailasam as well as a Shakthipeetham. It is believed to be one of the three places where Lord Rama performed puja to absolve the Brahmana Hatya Dosham. Located atop Swami Rock, the temple offers magnificent panoramic views of Trincomalee’s natural harbour and coastline. Afterwards, visit the Kanniya Hot Water Springs, a unique site with seven square-shaped hot wells, each about 3–4 feet deep.
