Set off from Sri Lanka’s southern coast—one of Asia’s top whale watching hotspots—for an unforgettable ocean adventure. Witness the awe-inspiring Blue Whale, the largest animal on Earth, and the magnificent Sperm Whale, as they glide through the waters near Mirissa. Just one moment of eye contact with these gentle giants is enough to leave you breathless. Elegant, powerful, and mysterious—this is marine magic at its finest.
Your adventure begins at 6:30 a.m. from the Mirissa Fisheries Harbor, where you’ll board a modern, fully-equipped vessel designed for both comfort and safety. With GPS, UHF radios, life jackets, and a trained crew certified in life-saving and first aid, you’re in expert hands.
Enjoy a freshly prepared breakfast on board, relax in comfortable seating, and even access clean Western-style toilets with shower facilities. The 4–5 hour cruise offers a 90–95% chance of spotting whales—so keep your eyes on the horizon!
