Netrani/Pigeon island

Hi!

I´ve heard about an island off the coast of Karnataka (Netrani/Pigeon island) - is it possible to go snorkelling there?
It should be close to Turtle Bay Resort. And what about Devbagh resort close to Karwar.
I´ve also heard about murky waters - it´s it worth it?

stayed at turtle bay last year, saw no snorkelers. Truth be told, it was pretty boring there, and the accomodation was, how shall i say this . . in my country we'd call it "ghetto." Instead of being simple it was shoddy, if you know what I mean.

ERROR !!!!!!!!!

There's an island off of Kharwar with a turtle rock formation, and I thought this turtle bay was it, but it isnt.
THEREFORE-cancal everything I just posted, it applies to some other place, whichwas uninspiring to have its name completely erased from my memory.

Devbagh island off Karwar is beautiful. I have been there.

Jungle lodge Resorts has a property called 'Devbagh beach resort' and Great Outdoors also has a island property.

The facilities and the water sports are good here. But, no diving / snorkelling etc.

Check my travelogue on Karwar..

snorkeling at Netrani/Pigeon Island

People can reach Murudeshwar Temple and catch boat for Netrani there. I found Netrani an amazing place for Snorkeling and Scuba diving. It will be very costly for 2-5 people go as boat booking all the way to Netrani will become very costly.

We arrange Diving and Snorkeling Trips to Netrani. You can check out the next schedule at bmcindia.org if you want to join us.

If you want to make it your own and need any pointer let me know.
