Snorkelling and Surfing


Mirissa Beach is located close to the very Southern tip of Sri Lanka. While traveling on the Matara road you will encounter one of the most beautiful beaches of the island the unique Mirissa Beach. Wide sandy strands will give you a warm welcome especially in the mornings and evenings when the sky provides a spectacular sunrise and sunset from pastel pink to flamy red. The long shoreline is defined by an abundance of coconut trees beyond those endless beaches. The sea water alternates between flat and wavy from day to day.
Parts of the Mirissa beach are snorkelling and surfing areas, especially the Eastern end of the Mirissa bay is a perfect snorkeling spot whereas the Western end is a fun right point for surfers. Don't swim at the Western tip of the bay due to swell, rocks and sea urchins! Also be aware of strong currents while snorkeling!

The Romans called it Taprobane, marked on Ptolemy's map of the world, derived from "Tambapanni" - land of copper coloured earth and lotuses given by the first known migrants from North India. The Arab traders of the past called in Serentivu and Serendib - island of delight, which gave birth to the English word Serendipity - the prospect of discovering pleasant surprises. The Portuguese corrupted this to Ceilao; the Dutch to Ceilan and the British called it Ceylon. But the people of the East, as distant as Indonesia, always knew the island by the name given by its own people - Sri Lanka.
