What is so Special about Neil Island?

Neil Island stands out for divers because of the great visibility it has to offer underwater. Have you heard of the Venturi effect? Well, simply put, moving water speeds up when it flows through a constricted section of a passage because of a reduction in pressure, which helps in maintaining clearer water! 

Let’s talk about the marine life– our lovely marine friends dugongs and turtles are residents of the reefs around the island, which adds to its magical touch. The flora and fauna live in perfect harmony with the community of people, and you will feel at home in no time. And since you are planning to get certified, Neil Island makes for the perfect learning environment with its calm persona and fabulous weather. Do we need to convince you more or are you sold already?!
