Tuticorin shallow reef-and-seagrass dive with macro life
Green Mile is a shallow offshore reef-and-seagrass dive off Tuticorin, built for easy boat access and close-range macro viewing. It suits newer divers and training days, with scattered coral patches, soft seagrass, and a profile that rewards buoyancy control more than long-distance cruising. Seasonal jellyfish and small reef life add variety without making the site feel difficult.

Scuba Diving
Shallow reef-and-seagrass diving with scattered coral patches, good macro potential, and an easy profile for all levels. It is a better fit for buoyancy work and close-range observation than for long cruising.
Freediving
Short, shallow breath-hold sessions are possible in calm conditions, but the site is better known as a scuba and snorkel reef than as a long freedive venue.
Snorkeling
Snorkelling can work over the shallow patches in calm water, but the site is most rewarding when you can spend time on the coral-and-seagrass details up close.
