Nilaveli Snorkeling at the famous Pigeon Island Marine Park is the absolute highlight at your stay at the Nilaveli Beach. We provide daily snorkeling trips from our Divinguru Nilaveli diving centre to the PIGEON ISLAND within a boat ride of around 10 minutes and a duration of around 2-3 hours snorkeling from the shore around the island. Around the Pigeon Island there are a lot of hard corals and you can see a lot of different coral fish of the Indian Ocean, sometime turtles and also Black Tip Reef Sharks in the shallow water. We provide all necessary snorkelling gear (mask, snorkel, fins) on request.
