Dolphins, natural performers, put on a fine show of synchronised swimming beside tourist boats. Blue whales rise from the depths of the ocean into the sky and back to the watery abode with a big splash, a vision of wonderment.
The Mirissa beach is lined with plenty of hotels and resorts that serve signature Sri Lankan cuisine and desirable choices of food from around the world. The shore is filled with romance under the pink hues of evening. With music in the air, dazzling colourful lights, sizzling dishes and the merry clink of frothing glasses these restaurants make the beach a hotspot at night.
