Pigeon Island fun

Fabulous snorkelling trip with DivingGuru, very friendly organisation of the trip and helpful. Prabu was a fantastic guide and took us round the reef, showing us all the marine life. We saw lots of sharks and fish - my son saw a turtle on a later snorkel in the same trip.

Amazing and engaging

My experience was amazing...I felt safe. My guide was especially caring and aware of our entire group at all times especially when I became uncomfortable. Can't praise them both enough.
