Crystal clear waters, unblemished scenery, and a fun little night market await you at Mirissa Beach. Not too commercial or touristy, the beach offers peace and quiet as you lie down on one of the sun beds lined up along the coast. Rougher waters make for great body surfing, and the rocks harbor some marine life to observe while snorkeling. You might be surprised to hear that whales and dolphins--even giant blue whales--live in the water off this beach, so keep your eyes open. During the evening, tables with fresh produce line up along the coast, so be sure to take your pick from the delicious options available.

I recently visited Mirissa Beach in Sri Lanka, and it was hands down the best beach I experienced in the country. The beach boasts soft golden sand, crystal-clear waters, and stunning views. The atmosphere is laid-back and relaxed, with plenty of beachside restaurants and bars serving up delicious food and drinks. I particularly enjoyed watching the sunset over the Indian Ocean, which was truly magical. The beach also offers plenty of activities, such as surfing and whale watching. Overall, I would rate my experience at Mirissa Beach as 5 stars, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, peaceful, and enjoyable beach experience in Sri Lanka.
