Serenaded by technicolour sunsets that melt into the blue of the Indian Ocean, Bentota\u2019s natural beauty is undeniable, while a cluster of premium hotels and restaurants adds a splash of luxury. Fondly known as the watersports capital of Sri Lanka, head to Bentota Beach to get your adrenaline soaring with water-skiing, windsurfing, snorkelling and kayaking. A beloved gem of the \u2018Pearl of the Indian Ocean\u2019, Bentota\u2019s tranquil charm is sure to bewitch all who visit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Best time to visit:<\/strong> The popular beach town of Bentota pulsates with life from November to March.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Whale watching at Mirissa&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tucked away on the southern coast of Sri Lanka, the picturesque sea town of Mirissa teases with its surreal blue whale sightings and surf-friendly turquoise waters. Dotted with coconut trees that sway in the ocean breeze, hidden beaches cradled by woody hills, and tidal rock pools, Mirissa unveils a tropical paradise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Experience the sheer magic of spotting an enigmatic blue whale or glimpse playful dolphins splashing around, snorkel in the camouflaged coves, or simply wait for dusk to spill its colours on the sky-wide canvas with an epic sunset. As night falls, Mirissa twinkles with buzzing beach shack parties, which pump out peppy music and an electrifying atmosphere.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Best time to visit: <\/strong>Get the best seats to enjoy whale watching when you visit Mirissa between October and April.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Palm tree swing ropes in Unawatuna&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/hotels\/country\/sri-lanka\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/shutterstock_1269767086-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"A person on a swing in the beach town of Unawatuna, one of Sri Lankas best beaches - Luxury Escapes \" class=\"wp-image-12560\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the aromas of delicious seafood curries being stirred in the seaside restaurants don\u2019t tether you to the enchanting shores of Unawatuna, the sight of its gnarly waves will do the trick. Clutching onto the southern fringes of the Sri Lankan coast, Unawatuna is only six kilometres from the UNESCO World Heritage-listed site of <a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/6-must-do-experiences-in-galle-sri-lanka\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Galle Fort<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The uniquely banana-shaped beach curves neatly and makes way for novice surfers to catch their first waves and swimmers to enjoy a splash in the shallows. Swing over the lagoons from the famous palm tree rope swing or take a short scenic hike to visit the Japanese Peace Pagoda. Moreover, if you\u2019re craving good ol\u2019 Melbourne-style brunch and freshly roasted coffee, head to <strong>Skinny Tom\u2019s Deli<\/strong>, famed for its coconut ice-crushed drinks and mouth-watering shakshuka\u2019s.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Best time to visit:<\/strong> Bustling Unawatuna Beach makes for a great escape between October and
