An exciting activity not to miss when you visit the south of Sri Lanka on holiday is whale and dolphin watching. Witnessing these giant mammals in their natural habitat is an inexplicable feeling, and we assure you of a lifetime of memories when you book this expedition through Lakpura. These gentle giants are best seen during the months of December to April when the Southern seas are comparatively calmer. Expeditions are organised in the morning or afternoon, while the morning trip is the most sought after.
Includes
Hotel pick-up and drop-off
Transport to and from the harbour from the hotel in an air-conditioned vehicle
You will be picked up in an air-conditioned vehicle from your hotel in Galle prior to the whale-watching tour, which starts from the Mirissa Harbour. The shared boat leaves the harbour at 6.30 am for the morning session or 2.30 pm for the afternoon session. You can request your session when making the booking. The tour duration is approximately 4 1/2 hours, while you will be provided with safety jackets. Once the boat reaches a safe distance, you will be able to witness schools of magnificent whales and dolphins in their natural habitat.
The southern seas of Sri Lanka are inhabited by many types of whales, including blue whales, sperm whales, fin whales, and crowds of dolphins. You might be surprised if you spot an occasional orca swimming by. Once the whale-watching experience ends, you will be dropped off at your hotel in Galle.
