Snorkeling

Sri Lanka is surrounded by the Indian Ocean, and its seas are abundant with shallow reefs with corals and marine life. Snorkeling is a safe and easy way to explore the shallower areas around the Island, without the use of diving equipment or extensive training. All one needs are pair of fins, a snorkel, and a face mask. It is a fun sport for all ages as one can view the spectacular underwater world at a leisurely pace. Pigeon Island, Hikkaduwa, Unawatuna and Bentota are the ideal locations for snorkeling.
