Mirissa Blue Whale Watching Day Tour

Set sail into the deep blue waters of the Indian Ocean with the Mirissa Blue Whale Watching Day Tour, Sri Lanka’s premier marine wildlife excursion. Mirissa is globally recognized as one of the best locations on earth for spotting the magnificent blue whale—the largest creature to ever live—as well as playful pods of dolphins, sperm whales, and sea turtles.

This professionally guided cruise offers travellers a rare opportunity to witness these majestic ocean giants in their natural habitat while enjoying the coastal beauty and refreshing sea breeze of the southern coast.

The Mirissa Blue Whale Watching Day Tour begins with an early morning boarding and breakfast at Mirissa harbor. Next, you cruise into the deep Indian Ocean while naturalists scan for colossal blue whales. The excursion peaks as you witness these ocean giants surface, spray water, and fluke their massive tails.

The wildlife viewing continues with playful pods of spinner and bottlenose dolphins leaping alongside the bow. You can also spot flying fish, oceanic birds, and swimming sea turtles in the rich currents. Finally, the tour winds down with a relaxing return cruise to the harbour with fresh fruit juice.
