Ready for the experience of a lifetime? Whale watching is on many people&rsquo;s bucket lists, yet not everyone can say they&rsquo;ve glimpsed these majestic mammals in their natural environment. We&rsquo;ll give it our best shot as we take you exploring off the coast of Mirissa, well-renowned as one of the world&rsquo;s top whale watching destinations.

After an early morning pick-up to ensure the best chance of seeing these beauties, we&rsquo;ll depart from Mirissa Fishery Harbour by boat. An experienced guide will use their beady eyes to check for white-tipped plumes of water, the first telltale sign that a whale could be about to breach.

&lsquo;&rsquo;It was an experience I wouldn&rsquo;t have missed for the world&rsquo;&rsquo; &ndash; <a href="https://worldtravelfamily.com/blue-whale-whale-watching-mirissasri-lanka/">World Travel Family </a>

Make like Chris Hemsworth in Heart of the Sea and try your luck spotting these awe-inspiring marine mammals, whether whale or dolphin. Fingers crossed we&rsquo;ll see a whole bunch, and more likely so during peak season from November to April. Until you&rsquo;ve experienced whales in the wild, you&rsquo;ll have no idea how majestic (and enormous!) these creatures actually are.

Did you know that a blue whale&rsquo;s tongue alone can weigh as much as an elephant? They can also measure up to 30 metres in length. Not only does this make them incredibly impressive, it means they&rsquo;re pretty easy to spot even from a distance. Once we&rsquo;ve spent four hours cruising the Sri Lankan coastline, we&rsquo;ll return to the harbour, then your accommodation. Sit back and let&rsquo;s go on an adventure!

&lsquo;&rsquo;We sailed straight through a giant pod with so many dolphins, that we could just not count them all&rsquo;&rsquo; &ndash; <a href="https://foreverroamingtheroads.com/whale-watching-mirissa-sri-lanka/">Forever Roaming the Roads</a>
