Trincomalee: Whales Watching and Navy Island Snorkeling Tour
Unforgettable family experience. Safety and kindness from start to finish
We had an extraordinary day with the entire team at Trinco Bay Dive Center for a family outing (2 adults and 2 children aged 9 and 13). The local managers are very professional and the team includes a French-speaking employee, which was a real plus for us and made the interactions very smooth and reassuring. In the morning, we left for a snorkeling excursion. The agency had chartered a private boat just for our family, accompanied by an attentive guide who followed us with a safety buoy: ideal for serving as a fixed reference point and reassuring everyone in the water. The afternoon was dedicated to our introductory scuba dive with my son. The supervision is extremely rigorous and follows a set protocol: very clear explanations given by the instructors, a perfectly designed explanatory video, then a trial session of the equipment in the pool before taking the boat to the sea. You feel completely confident from start to finish. All the staff are very kind and constantly attentive. Furthermore, their rates are very reasonable compared to other competing structures in the region. A huge thank you to the whole team for these wonderful memories. You can go there with your eyes closed!

Divinguru review
Returning to diving after almost 10 years was something I was both excited and nervous about, but Divinguru made it an experience I'll never forget. From the moment I arrived, everyone was incredibly welcoming and professional. My instructor, Maya, was absolutely amazing. She was patient, calm, and reassuring, taking the time to make sure I was comfortable and confident before every dive. Her guidance helped me relax completely, and before I knew it, I was enjoying every second underwater. After such a long break, feeling completely safe was a important thing to me, and Maya gave me that confidence throughout every dive. A big thank you as well to Rabu, our boat driver, who was awesome! always friendly, helpful, and made every trip out to the dive sites smooth and enjoyable. His positive attitude really added to the whole experience. Every dive site had something unique to offer. White Rock was an amazing place to ease back into diving, while Mushroom Garden completely amazed me with its vibrant and healthy coral reefs. The marine life around Welluare Rock was incredible, especially the number of beautiful eels hiding among the rocks. At Sithanane Pare, seeing graceful stingrays and Cuttlefish gliding effortlessly across the sea was an unforgettable highlight of the trip. What stood out most about Divinguru was how much the team genuinely cared about making sure everyone had a safe, enjoyable, and memorable experience. Their passion for diving, attention to safety, and knowledge of the local dive sites made every dive special. I'm so grateful to Maya, Rabu, and the entire Divinguru team for helping me. Thanks to them, what started as a dive I was a little nervous about turned into one of the highlights of my trip. If you're looking for a dive center that is professional, welcoming, and truly passionate about what they do, I can't recommend Divinguru enough. Whether you're a first-time diver, getting back into diving after a long break like I was, or an experienced diver, you'll be in excellent hands. Thank you for such an unforgettable experience, i already can't wait to come back! Kind regard Laurens
