Sri Lanka Navy (SLN) Dockyard is the largest naval base of the Sri Lanka Navy and a major shipyard located in Trincomalee, Sri Lanka. Established by the British as the Royal Naval Dockyard, Trincomalee, it was home to the East Indies Station of the Royal Navy during World War II. Since the withdrawal of the Royal Navy, the Royal Ceylon Navy took over the dockyard. It became the home base of the RCyN fleet, and today it is home to the Eastern Naval Command and the Naval and Maritime Academy of the Sri Lanka Navy.[1]
