Day 08 - Snorkeling in Pigeon Island



Finally! After long working months i got an escape back to my snorkeling and diving world. And This time in trincomalee, the North-east coast of Sri lanka. "Pigeon Island" is located 1.5Kms off from the coast of Nilaveli. Beautiful with its high contrasting colors of the sandy beach. Snorkeling is really good here from May to August. However it was partially cloudy when we did the snorkeling.. So some of the photos had no enough light. I went there with the blue-deep diving center. These guys were awesome and i highly recommend them. They were very pro-active, especially "Chamakla" the guys who helped me to take photos.
