An early-morning boat excursion from Mirissa harbour in search of blue whales, sperm whales and dolphin pods, best undertaken between November and April. Boats depart before sunrise, when seas are calmest and sightings most likely, returning by late morning. We work with operators who prioritise responsible, respectful viewing distances over guaranteed close encounters. This tour pairs naturally with a south-coast beach stay.
