The activity of whale watching in Sri Lanka has only recently gained publicity, but it is fast growing into a major attraction. Dolphin watching is usually best in the pristine waters of Kaplitya, while Dondra Point in the south will give visitors a chance to see magnificent blue whales and sperm whales. These gentle giants follow a migratory path that brings them close to Dondra Point and the best season to spot them is between December to March.
