    My family and I all went on this tour today and we had to get up super early to go out by 7 am but was totally worth it. The captain and the crew are so friendly, knowledgeable and always wanting to make sure you have the best experience. We saw dolphins very quickly followed by some turtles but no whales. However the captain persisted and kept trying and I am so glad he did as we got up very close to a beautiful blue whale. Great day out !!!

    It goes without saying, these guys are professionals! We detected blue whale, a lot of dolphins, turtles and flying fish! There were no crowds on the boat (approx. 30-35 people overall), organisers cared about the comfort of the group not about the profit. Breakfast and lunch were included, as a great bonus! Price: 5000+ 3500(commission) = rs 8500 per person

    I had a great time on their boat. We saw a blue whale and dozens of dolphins of two different types. The staff was very friendly. I paid 16500 Sri Lanka Rupees for the whale watching tour which lastet around 6 hours (good food and water included), what in my opinion is a very fair price. Also their boat ist more modern and not as crowded as the boats from their competitors. So there was always enough room for everyone to get a good view on the whales and dolphins. Also I always had the impression that they respected the animals and still where as fascinated by them like their guests. So I can highly recommend to go with them when you would like to do a whalewatching tour in Mirissa.

    Whale watching is a must at least once in your life. Its an exciting activity! However, a lot depends on which operator you choose. After some research I chose WWC! These guys are amazing! The operate the tour like a star class cruise. They have a good and clean boat, great hospitality and service. The captain is professional and ensures all customers onboard are take care of. While all boats left after little sighting of whales, our captain was using all his tracking techniques to give us a closer view. WWC made the whole experience a great and memorable one!. Don't go anywhere else - Just book your tour with them!

    Such a amazing experience in my life. There is so many whale watching services around the Mirissa. But this is the correct place. Cleaner than other boats. Safer than other. Also the owner and all crew members are very friendly and hard to give their best to customers. Choose whale watching club without considering the price. It's totally worthy. We saw lot's of dolphins ane one big blue whale closely server times. Also there providing foods during whale watching. Also Team members are Sharing so much knowledge about whale's and dolphins. It's 100% safe trip. Don't think just book...

    This is an amazing experince. WOW. We pay the good money to see dolphins and whales. The "WHALE WATCHING CLUB" team never made us disappointed. Lovely staff. Manoj and the team did a wonderful job to made all of us happy during the 4 hours trip. Breakfast is so nice. Pol rotty with lunu miris (I use Sri Lankan names here) was so delicious. In between had a pineapple round and a soft drink to make us relaxed. Anyone who is planning to spend your time for whale watching you must select MIRISSA and then contact Manoj +94772245312 via whatsapp for reservations. THE BEST IS GUARANTEED.

    The tour was great and very easy to book. The boat was fantastic, it was far more spacious than the other boats we saw heading out which were packed upstairs. This one is set up so it will never be so busy - highly recommend. Staff were all friendly and served a good breakfast and on return a roti with coke. The captain made a huge effort to get us up close to the whales and other wildlife. Thanks!

    Joined the tour on Nov. 2019. The price is 15000 LKR for two ppl. The fee includes one tuktuk ride from our hotel, lots of food, whale watching guide. Luckily, there are not much ppl joining the tour that day. The boat is big, clean, and comfortable with few ppl on it. The staffs are nice and efficient. You will not feel hungry or thirsty at all cuz we were fed all the time during the journey. We went out at 7:00 am and returned at around 11 am. Saw 6-7 blue whales and around 50 dolphins. It’s a pity we didn’t find other types of whales except the two types. I will recommend this tour based on this experience.

    This was an amazing experience! We were collected from our hotel just after 6am and taken to our boat. The crew were amazing and knowledgeable regarding whales and other sea life. We were lucky enough to spot humpback whales, dolphins and false killer whales 🐋 the boat was really comfortable and the crew very respectful of the sealife. Highly recommended! On our way back we even spotted a whale shark!

    If you're looking for an unforgettable whale watching experience, I highly recommend visiting Whale Watching Club. From the moment we arrived, the staff greeted us with a warm welcome and friendly smiles. The captain was incredibly talented at spotting whales, and we were lucky enough to see both dolphins and killer whales during our 5.5-hour sailing adventure. They even provided us with delicious refreshments like coffee, sandwiches, fruits, and rotti throughout the trip. We took amazing photos and videos of us with the whales, making the experience even more memorable. And with reasonable prices, it's an opportunity that's hard to pass up. Just be sure to arrive at the office before 6:30 a.m. to ensure you don't miss out on this incredible adventure. Overall, an amazing day that I would recommend to anyone.

    What a memorable morning with WWC. Their ship is the best of the lot, and they have the least crowded ship making it a nice intimate experience. The crew is very ethical in the way they approach marine life. We had a great time seeing the Whales and Dolphins with them. They kept serving us tea, sandwiches, fruits and even coconut roti, making us feel like we’re on an amazing picnic. Would highly recommend this to everyone, if you want to go whale watching in mirissa - definitely go for WWC.

    I really enjoyed whale watching with Manoj team and his boat. The beauty of the trip was that the number of seats on board was sufficient to not create a feeling of a crowd, since the other boats are very old and crowded with people to the top (sometimes the boat lurched to one side when people ran across to look at whales that it looked like it was about to roll over) for breakfast we had an egg sandwich, drinks, later there was a rotti and more drinks and fruits. The boat does not go fast, so this line is suitable for those who get seasick on the water. the very process of whale watching is similar to the jokes of whales, they are shown in some place, and all the boats that are in the area (about 5-10 boats) rush there with all their might, puffing black smoke and rattling their motors. Our boat was not like that at all, we calmly and slowly moved through the water, trying not to scare the whales, and they rewarded us and showed up very close, while other boats frantically chased the animals, while they swam in a completely different direction, to appear later there and make the boats chase after them again. later we saw a lot of dolphins flaunting right in front of our boat, even two mating turtles were taken by surprise. in general, if you need a calm and respectful trip to nature, come to these guys

    Perfect - I can really recommend the Wale Watching Club in Mirissa! We saw different kinds of dolphins and fin wales! :) The boat was spacious and we could sit upstairs or downstairs and stand everywhere, move around as we wanted and everyone could see the dolphins and wales (it was not crowded like the other boats.) The captain and crew were very friendly and talented to spot the animals and follow them in a respectful way, so were able to see them from close without disturbing their natural swimming path. Food was delicious and home made. Drinks were provided. Toilet was good too, they kept it tidy. The captain really took the time to search the wales. We spent about 6 hours on sea. He is very passionate about wale watching and is providing and excellent experience! Perfect in all categories! :)

    The tour was excellent. The capitan seems to be knowledgeable every time he point the place where the whale would appear and yes, every time was right. We were so happy to see it and loads of dolphins. At time that all the boats went back we stayed there waiting for the whale and it was definitely worth we saw it 3 more times with out any boat nearby.The crew was very helpful and food was good. The boat is big and you have plenty of place to walk around and see the whale 🐋 from any angle. I truly recommend them

    Choose Whale Watching Club blindly for the best whale watching experience. They have the best in class boat, captain, staff and service. Boat is maintained really clean and is spacious to freely roam on the upper/lower deck to get the best views. The captain and staff are so friendly and helpful that you feel like home. Snacks served is of great quality. And the most important thing, they ensure that you have a sight of whales during the trip. I absolutely recommend them for anyone looking for whale watching experience
