Yes, barking street dogs are incredibly common everywhere on the island, from the busy streets of Colombo to the quietest rural villages. They frequently howl and fight for territory in the middle of the night, which can easily ruin your sleep.

If you are a light sleeper, bringing a high quality pair of silicone earplugs is absolutely essential for traveling in Sri Lanka. It is the only guaranteed way to block out the noise of the roaming dog packs.
