Sri Lanka’s tourism recovery is facing significant headwinds, with new forecasts indicating the island nation will fall half a million visitors short of its ambitious 3 million arrival target this year.

According to First Capital Research (FCR), the country will likely welcome just 2.5 million tourists in 2025, resulting in approximately US$ 4 billion revenue below the targeted US$ 5 billion revenue. Even by 2026, FCR predicts Sri Lanka will still miss its 3 million target by about 200,000 arrivals.
