About Mirissa

Mirissa is the south coast's dreamiest beach town — a crescent of golden sand backed by palms, with easy surf, coconut-tree hill viewpoints and the island's best blue-whale watching just offshore.

Things to do

  • Blue and sperm whale watching cruise
  • Sunrise at Coconut Tree Hill
  • Learn to surf on gentle breaks
  • Fresh seafood by the beach
