As we need to vacate the resort in the morning, we packed our bags overnight and had a pleasant sleep in comfort. We started early around 5:30 AM and drove to Kalapathar Beach.

Shimmering waves and the shores washing away dead coral reefs is attractive. Though it’s a beautiful beach, we didn’t like it much as the shorelines are studded with plastics and other stuffs.

Exhilarating Scuba diving at Beach 2 – Nemo’s Reef, Havelock Island:

On our way back, we both planned to go for scuba diving at Beach 2 – Nemo’s Reef through Scuba Pro divers. However, due to illness, I couldn’t go for it. So Lazz had to go alone. It costs Rs. 3500 per person.

It was exhilarating to comprehend the underwater sea life. Colorful fishes, corals and the clown fish reminisce watching the movie, ‘Finding Nemo’. They gave the video and photographs copied in our mobile phones.

After snorkeling at Elephant Beach, Lazz felt he could’ve opted for scuba diving here which had lot of live corals and colorful fishes. So, do head to Elephant beach for all adventurous water rides.
