The experience
A place to make time for
Scuba diving around Trincomalee covers a changing mix of reef, coastal and wreck environments rather than one fixed dive site. Conditions, permissions and suitable sites depend on season, visibility and diver experience. Use an appropriately registered dive centre with qualified staff, maintained equipment and an emergency plan, and follow any marine or security restrictions.
