How to find the famous Coconut Tree Hill in Mirissa?

Walk around 15 minutes east from Mirissa Beach following the coastline, or take a quick tuk-tuk ride along Matara Road to the access path near the Maison D’Hotes Sanda resort. You will find a brief, steep dirt trail inside the palm grove that leads straight up to the scenic viewpoint.

This spot is totally free to enter, and it stays open for everyone all day, 24/7. If you arrive not long after sunrise, you get better lighting for photography, and you also avoid the intense mid-morning heat, plus the big evening crowd.
