Whale & Dolphin Watching in Kalpitiya – An Intimate Ocean Experience 🌊🐋🐬

Looking for an authentic whale and dolphin watching adventure in Sri Lanka? Kalpitiya is one of the best places on the island to spot these magnificent creatures. Unlike Mirissa, where large boats often crowd the waters, Kalpitiya offers a more intimate experience. Here, you’ll head out in a cozy, sun-shaded dinghy—no huge crowds, just you, the ocean, and unforgettable encounters with marine giants.

Why Choose Whale & Dolphin Watching in Kalpitiya?

Small-boat experience – Enjoy a personal, uncrowded trip in a dinghy, perfect for close-up encounters and a more eco-friendly approach.
Best conditions in the morning – Our tours depart at 5:30 AM when the sea is calmest, giving you the smoothest ride and highest chance of sightings.
Complimentary Tuk Tuk transfers – If you’re staying nearby, we’ll pick you up and drop you back for a hassle-free adventure.
Rich marine life – Kalpitiya is renowned for sperm whales and lucky guests often spot blue whales, orcas, and Omura whales.
