The experience

Make the most of your visit

  • A distinctive rock formation off Mirissa Beach
  • A focal point for shoreline photography

Before you go

  • The accepted scope is a view from shore; no water crossing, rock climb or route onto the outcrop is included. Confirm a suitable public viewing point locally.
  • Coordinate this interest with the existing Mirissa Beach visit so the same time is not counted twice. Parrot Rock and Coconut Tree Hill remain distinct landmarks.

Coconut Tree Hill

Mirissa

Coconut Tree Hill is a palm-covered headland overlooking the sea near Mirissa. The contrast between the slender coconut trunks, open ground and ocean horizon gives the site its familiar photographic character. It offers a different coastal perspective from the main beach, with a visit dependent on the currently permitted approach and viewing area.

Garanduwa Lagoon

Mirissa

Garanduwa Lagoon lies inland from Mirissa’s coast, with mangroves and other wetland vegetation around its waters. The landscape has attracted biodiversity research and offers a natural-history interest beyond the beaches. A land-based visit should use an agreed viewing area, with the surrounding homes, habitats and working waterways treated respectfully.

Garanduwa Nadeethirarama Viharaya

Mirissa

Garanduwa Nadeethirarama Viharaya is a Buddhist temple beside Garanduwa Lagoon, with a painted image house among its historic buildings. The mural collection gives the site an artistic focus, while the lagoon-side setting connects it to the surrounding village landscape. A temple visit is a separate arrangement from any time spent viewing the wetland.
