Kovalam, Kerala
Kovalam is situated in Kerala, at a distance of about 16 km from Thiruvananthapuram. A beach area mainly, it is slowly developing into a popular scuba diving locale since the Bond Safari Kovalam has come there. Instead of using the traditional scuba gear, the company makes use of what is known as a 'bond' submarine, which is basically an underwater scooter. So, that's quite interesting, isn't it?
Moreover, the waters here are really calm, with shoals of anchovy and silver moony, Bluefin trevally, the odd Moray eel, puffer fish, groupers, box fish, sergeants, pipe fish, etc. The place is well connected by railways and airports. This site is also one of the most beautiful dive sites in India. Therefore, if anyone wants to find a place for diving, just come here and enjoy the moment.
