Mirissa

Mirissa represents the idyllic tropical southern coast at its most photogenic: a sheltered sandy bay fringed by leaning palms, clear surf breaks, and the dramatic vantage of Coconut Tree Hill extending into the turquoise sea.

Because the continental shelf drops precipitously just a few miles offshore, the waters off Mirissa form a rich nutrient highway for the planet's largest mammals, making it one of the premier destinations worldwide for ethical whale and dolphin watching.
