We will meet on Nilaveli beach and usually the boat ride to pigeon island takes between 10 to 15 minutes. Upon arrival you will be provided by the snorkeling equipment such as mask, gear and fins (life jackets are available at the boat). In the shallow water around the national park, you may able to easily spot tropical fish and other marine creatures living by the reefs while Blacktip sharks are very common in this region (don’t worry, they are harmless and staying calm and observe them will give you a satisfactory experience). If you are lucky, you may able to spot sea turtles which can be seen occasionally in this region. The water is shallow and completely safe for beginners. However, if you need an extra comfort you may able to hire a snorkeling guide from the island (on tipping basis). You are free to relax on the island’s sandy beach at your own pace and at the end of experience, we will drop you back to Nilaveli beach along with the memories grabbed across this experience..
