Dolphin Watching Tour
Come to Mirissa to watch the dance of the ocean giants.
Large pods of dolphins are a near-daily sight on our morning boat trips. We follow them at a respectful distance from the deck — no swimming required — on the same comfortable catamaran as our Whale Watching Tour.
Tour Details
The best season to see dolphins is October to April, when the sea is generally calmer. Boats usually depart from Mirissa Fisheries Harbour around 6:00–6:30 AM.
For the best chance of a close encounter, ask to stand near the bow (front) of the boat — dolphins love riding the wake there.
