Are you waiting to click that perfect picture and then upload it on Instagram? If you are on a tour to Sri Lanka, head to Mirissa to get this done. All attractions are set to offer you an amazing experience. Check this out!
Located on the southern coast of Sri Lanka, Mirissa is a coastal town that is immensely popular among foreigners and locals alike. Compared to other coastal towns in the country, Mirissa is small and laidback. The tourism sector, however, is thriving, and it's home to many hotels such as Sri Sharavi Beach Villas & Spa. Authenticity is key in every boutique hotel in Mirissa, and you will absolutely love everything about it. Mirissa offers great whale watching (and dolphin watching) opportunities, and the beaches are great for water adventures too.
Do you believe that the beaches let you experience the best of sunrises and sunsets? Mirissa Beach lets you enjoy uninterrupted views of these, and that's also what will make your clicks so perfect. If you are with your friends or family, head to the beach, grab a drink and wait patiently for the sun's movement. When the sky turns purple or orange, get your camera ready and let someone capture the best pose of you. If you are capturing the sceneries, make sure you opt for panoramic shots capturing 360-degree beauty. Light up your Insta feed like a diva!
Parrot Rock, located not so far away from Mirissa Beach, is yet another beautiful spot to visit. It's a very small rock, and you may be able to climb it within 5 minutes. The views from the top of the Parrot Rock are beyond all imaginations and expressions. You'll be luckier if you get the chance to secure a spot on the old bench here. Be seated there, and let someone capture you looking at the horizon.
This is the most picturesque place in Mirissa, and there's no doubt about it! Locals come here to do their photo shoots for weddings, anniversaries, and this is soon becoming a trend among foreigners too. If you want to click a good photo here, it's recommended to come here at least by 6.30 am. By 10 in the morning, crowds will start flocking in with their filming equipment. Yes, it's a crowded place, but a must-visit at least once!
They say it's the Secret Beach, but it's no longer a secret! Even the foreigners have discovered the beauty of this place, and prefer to take at least a few clicks before moving to the next attraction. You may also use the swings and hammocks here as props, and they all will add on to create beautiful and authentic photographs.
Since Mirissa is a tourist-friendly destination, it expects all sorts of travellers. The city has hip bars, boutique hotels, and small restaurants that sometimes have the best photo backgrounds. They have street arts to amaze you as well.
