Explore the magical marine waters off Sri Lanka’s southern coast, where one of the world’s largest animals graces the waves and you can enjoy a thrilling sea-voyage. The stretch around Mirissa and Weligama is famed for close-to-shore sightings of blue whales, sperm whales and dolphins — ideal for a whale watching day tour.
Each morning your journey begins from comfortable coastal harbour, where boat trips depart into deep blue waters. With calm seas from November to April, conditions are excellent for spotting majestic whales and pods of spinner dolphins.
