Welcome to Salty Fish Mirissa, the chill spot in the heart of vibrant Mirissa, Sri Lanka. Get ready for our lovely guesthouse with comfort and a laid-back vibe. Whether you're looking for a chill getaway or an adventure-filled holiday. Our rooms are designed to provide comfort and relaxation. Treat yourself to local delights or a good cup of coffee at our cozy coffee shop named KORAL, right in front of our house. Each room comes with an attached bathroom, a fan to keep you cool in the tropical climate, mosquito nets to ensure a peaceful night's sleep, and a shared balcony where you can unwind and chill in beautiful surroundings. On the ground floor facing the street you will find our restaurant and coffee bar which is not just about the food and drinks. It's a common area where you can hang out with fellow travelers. Attached to our restaurant is my private house where I live with my family. Around the private house I have the guest rooms facing the Mirissa harbor.
Get ready to discover some hidden gems like the Secret Beach. It's like a small paradise, away from the crowds. And if you're in the mood for a more happening beach scene, Mirissa Beach is just 500 meters away. Think golden sands, crystal-clear waters. Mirissa Fisheries Harbor is close from our place. Have an insight in the fishing culture and observe local fishermen as they bring in their daily catch. Whale Watching is also just a stone's throw away. If you're up for a short excursion, make your way to Coconut Tree Hill. Climb to the top and enjoy panoramic views of the coastline and the swaying palm trees that dot the landscape. For your transportation needs, Mirissa Bus Stop is conveniently located. Making it super easy to hop on and off whenever you please. Additionally, an ATM is within easy reach, ensuring you have access to cash whenever required.
