Mirissa
Today, Mirissa is known as Sri Lanka’s whale-watching capital, offering some of the best chances in Asia to spot blue whales, sperm whales, and dolphins just off the coast. But the town is also packed with much more: serene beaches, surf spots, island-view restaurants, and cliffside sunsets you’ll never forget.
Discover Mirissa – Paradise on the Southern Coast with Our Tuk Tuk Tours!
Mirissa, located on Sri Lanka’s southern coastline between Matara and Weligama, is one of the island’s most captivating seaside destinations. Famous for its golden beaches, turquoise waters, and iconic palm tree hill, Mirissa is more than just a postcard-perfect getaway — it’s a vibrant coastal town with a rich history and authentic Sri Lankan charm.
Historically, Mirissa was a quiet fishing village with roots in Buddhist and Hindu traditions. Its surrounding hills are dotted with temples and shrines that have stood for centuries, reflecting the area’s spiritual depth. Over time, as travelers began discovering the beauty of Sri Lanka’s south, Mirissa became a beloved stop — first for backpackers, and now for families, couples, and adventurers from around the world.

We’re born and raised locals, not big travel agents. We know the best photo angles, the most peaceful times to visit attractions, and how to avoid tourist traps. We love our town and want you to fall in love with it too.
Mirissa Beach
Soft golden sand, swaying palms, and clear blue waves make Mirissa Beach the heart of the town. Perfect for swimming, sunbathing, or sipping fresh king coconut at a beachfront café. It’s also a great place to watch the sunset or take an evening stroll.
Coconut Tree Hill
A must-visit viewpoint, this iconic palm-covered cliff overlooking the ocean is famous on Instagram. The hill gives panoramic views of the coastline and is especially magical during sunrise or sunset.
Parrot Rock
This small rocky islet just offshore can be reached during low tide. Climb to the top for a unique perspective of Mirissa Beach and the rolling waves.
Secret Beach
Tucked away and less crowded, Secret Beach offers calm waters, natural pools, and peaceful vibes—ideal for couples or solo relaxation.
Turtle Bay
A serene part of the coastline where sea turtles often swim close to shore. With luck, you’ll spot one feeding or coming up for air.

Buzzing with local fishermen and whale-watching boats, this harbor is the town’s ocean gateway. It’s a great place to understand the local livelihood and watch colorful boats come and go.
Whale Watching Point
Mirissa is one of the top places in the world to spot blue whales and sperm whales. Even if you don’t take a boat tour, the lookout point offers incredible coastal views and sometimes dolphin sightings.
Weligama Bay (Nearby)
Just 10 minutes away, Weligama is a surfer’s paradise. Its gentle waves are perfect for beginners, and you can rent boards or take a quick lesson.

A tranquil Buddhist temple set on a small hill, offering peaceful views of the coastline. Perfect for spiritual travelers or those looking to understand local culture.
Spice Gardens & Local Fruit Stalls

Stilt Fishermen
An iconic image of Sri Lanka, stilt fishermen balance on wooden poles in the shallow waters, especially near Ahangama. While mostly ceremonial today, it's a beautiful and cultural photo opportunity.

EXCELLENT Based on 182 reviews regis robert2025-04-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nous avons été ravis de louer notre tuktuk chez Tuktuk Ceylon Ride pour 47 jours... Et de parcourir sans problème 3800km à travers ce magnifique pays. De la côte Ouest au Nord, de l'Est au Sud, du centre du pays... de la plage à la montagne en passant par la jungle aux villes complètement folles, des routes inondées aux pistes cahotiques, nous avons adoré conduire notre tuktuk. Un super roadtrip !!! L'équipe de Tuktuk Ceylon Ride est réactive via WhatsApp, et Indika notre contact physique à Negombo et ses collègues mécaniciens étaient au top !! A très vite pour un prochain tour ;) Sandra & Régis. Karol Sobolewski2025-03-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I rented a tuk-tuk for 5 days. The company arranged a Sri Lankan driving license for me. Everything went smoothly and without any issues. The price was reasonable, and their response on WhatsApp was almost instant.

We had the tuk tuk for 10 days and loved it. They were able to deliver the tuk tuk to nuwara eliya, and provide local drivers permit. We received a driving lesson that covered basic operation and maintenance of the tuk tuk such as changing oil, kick starting etc. communication via Whatsapp before and through our the trip was great. Tuk tuk comes with curtain for when it rains also. I would recommend. Jan Zurbrügg2025-03-27Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
