How early could I get into the Colombo airport?

The airport is 24h so you will be able to sit down, rest and perhaps even doze off on the (extremely uncomfortable) lobby seating.

If you let me know the airline you're traveling with, I can call the airport again and ask if your particular airline will have a separate seating area that would be open during that time, which may have potentially better seats for you to catch a bit of sleep on, but generally speaking, BIA - unlike many other airports - does not have those comfortable seats meant for sleeping.

Also, just FYI, the airport is near the Negombo area, and the only "local attraction" there is the beach. You wont have enough time to travel to the actual tourist destinations near the center of the country.

That being said, that area does have many cheap (and I mean cheap) hotels/motels, so you could potentially find yourself a nice room with a decent bed for a cheap price which would be infinitely better than trying to sleep on the crappy airport lobby chairs.
