About Whale Watching

The continental shelf drops away close to Sri Lanka's southern tip, bringing deep-water species within reach of day boats.

Mirissa is the main departure point from November to April. On the east coast, Trincomalee offers whale watching in roughly the opposite season. We work with operators who follow responsible viewing guidelines.
