Fantastic snorkeling experience

5.00Booked a snorkelling trip to coral island as wanted to avoid the entrance fee to Pigeon Island. It was fantastic and I saw loads!! Murali was an awesome snorkelling guide and I felt very safe with him in the water. He pointed out all the beautiful fish and cuttlefish. Sanjee was also a great boat captain and we had a fun boat ride on the way back too. Loved the trip!

5.00Overall beautiful experience. He arranged a pick up from our hotel by tuktuk. The man that took us on the boat was very experienced and kind. We were very lucky to see one blue whales which is very unlikely according to someone working at our hotel. You are guaranteed to see dolphins.
