Koggala airport promotes special whale-watching flights at reasonable prices. Sri Lanka is one of the best places to spot blue whales and sperm whales. The nearby Mirissa fishing harbor operates whale-watching cruises regularly. However, authorities do not monitor the number of cruises operating from Mirissa. Because of this situation, a horde of boats circles the whales every day.
Due to these unfortunate developments, we recommend Koggala whale-watching flights over Mirissa boat cruises. In our experience, nothing can be compared to following a giant blue whale from a light aircraft. You will not ever forget the exhilarating experience of seeing these beautiful creatures in their natural flow.
