Pigeon Island National Park is located just 3 km from Nilaveli Beach. The main activities here are snorkelling and diving. You can explore vibrant coral reefs, spot eels, and observe small schools of various colourful fish, including beautifully patterned boxfish. Drift along as iridescent parrotfish and damselfish glide past you. Elegantly flowing lined sweetlips fish, along with butterflyfish and bannerfish, create a mesmerising dance against the deep blue backdrop of the ocean. With a bit of luck, you might even encounter turtles, different species of rays, or blacktip reef shark
