Driving a tuk tuk out of Mirissa
Mirissa's own roads are short — the harbour, the beach road, and the headland out to Coconut Tree Hill are all a few minutes apart. A tuk tuk covers that easily and gives you somewhere dry to leave a jacket or towel while you walk the last stretch to the viewpoint, since the path itself is on foot either way.
The coast road north to Weligama is flat and well paved, four kilometres of easy driving if you want to see the stilt fishermen or try a beginner surf lesson without changing hotels. Keep going and Matara's old fort is a bit further again — a reasonable half-day loop rather than a rushed there-and-back.
