About Mirissa

Mirissa is a laid-back beach town on Sri Lanka's south coast, famous for whale and dolphin watching, palm-fringed coves, and vibrant beach cafés. It is the perfect base for ocean adventures and relaxed coastal living.

From November to April, Mirissa is one of the best places on earth to spot blue whales and spinner dolphins on an early-morning boat trip. Back on shore, climb Coconut Tree Hill for that postcard view, snorkel around Parrot Rock, and dine on fresh seafood as the sun sets over the bay. It's an easygoing beach town that makes a relaxing finale to any south-coast tour.
