Sri Lanka’s coastal waters shelter a remarkable diversity of marine life, from vibrant coral gardens and schools of tropical fish to dramatic shipwrecks, reef sharks, and the occasional whale shark or manta ray. Pigeon Island Marine National Park near Trincomalee is one of Sri Lanka’s finest snorkelling destinations, with clear, shallow waters covering hard coral formations and an abundance of reef fish, hawksbill turtles, and blacktip reef sharks. For scuba divers, the waters around Hikkaduwa, Weligama, and the east coast offer a range of dive sites suited to all experience levels, from gentle beginner reefs to deep wreck dives and drift dives through blue water. Ceyholiday partners with PADI-certified dive schools and experienced local dive operators to ensure safety, quality instruction, and access to the finest dive sites across both coastlines.
