Dolphin & Whale Watching in Sri Lanka
Overview
Sri Lanka is one of the best places in the world to watch whales and dolphins in the wild.
From Mirissa, Trincomalee, and Kalpitiya, boat tours take you into the deep sea to witness blue
whales, sperm whales, and large pods of playful spinner dolphins. The best time to go whale
watching is between November and April in Mirissa, and May to October in Trincomalee. These
tours are led by trained crews who follow safe and eco-friendly practices. It’s an unforgettable
experience to see these gentle giants up close, jumping or gliding through the ocean.
