Plan Your Adventure

Off the southern and eastern coasts of Sri Lanka, the ocean becomes a stage for the largest mammals on earth. From November to April, the warm currents and deep blue waters off Mirissa, Trincomalee, and Kalpitiya offer travelers the chance to witness Blue Whales, Sperm Whales, and playful pods of Spinner and Bottlenose Dolphins in their natural habitat.

 

Imagine the thrill of seeing the towering spout of a Blue Whale break the horizon, or a pod of dolphins dancing alongside your boat. These gentle giants and acrobatic dolphins thrive along the island’s narrow continental shelf, making Sri Lanka one of the best whale-watching destinations in Asia. Jetwing Eco Holidays ensures your marine safari is safe, responsible, and unforgettable—perfect for photographers, wildlife enthusiasts, and ocean lovers alike.
