Mirissa beach, a beautiful stretch of golden shore along the southern coast of the island, hosting a perfect combination of sun, sand and sea, lined with palm trees, crystal blue waters and little restaurants and beach huts, this beach has emerged as a surfing hotspot whilst being the ultimate whale watching destination of Sri Lanka. The main reason to visit this seaside town is because it offers an all-round experience where casual fun is met with unforgettable experiences. The once tiny fishing village in Sri Lanka has become a major beach holiday destination for tourists and locals alike due to the calm and friendly atmosphere by day, and party atmosphere by night. It really is a strip of paradise on earth.
