Bringing a high quality water purification bottle, like a Grayl GeoPress or a LifeStraw, is a brilliant choice and vastly superior for the environment. Sri Lanka suffers from a massive single use plastic pollution problem.

A good filter bottle allows you to safely drink the tap water directly from your hotel sink, instantly filtering out viruses and bacteria. It saves you money and completely eliminates the need to buy and discard dozens of plastic bottles during your holiday.
