#PigeonIsland #MarineWildlife #SriLankaNature #CoralReefs #UnderwaterLife #Wawekale Pigeon Island National Park, located off the northeastern coast of Sri Lanka near Trincomalee, is a vibrant marine sanctuary renowned for its stunning corals and diverse reef fish species. The park encompasses two small islands—Large Pigeon Island and Small Pigeon Island—surrounded by shallow coral reefs that offer a glimpse into the rich biodiversity of the Indian Ocean. The coral reefs here are among the healthiest in Sri Lanka, featuring over 100 species of coral, including brain coral, staghorn coral, and mushroom coral. These colorful formations create a thriving underwater habitat that supports an array of marine life. Reef fishes such as Parrotfish, Butterflyfish, Damselfish, Groupers and Wrasses can be commonly spotted darting between the corals. The presence of Blacktip reef sharks and turtles adds to the park's ecological value and allure for snorkelers and divers. The reef ecosystem plays a vital role in coastal protection, fisheries, and tourism, but it's also highly sensitive to threats such as coral bleaching and human activity. Conservation efforts are crucial to preserving this natural gem. Pigeon Island offers an unforgettable underwater experience, blending natural beauty and ecological importance, making it a must-visit destination for marine enthusiasts and eco-travelers alike.
