  • On the South coast of Sri Lanka is the beautiful town of Mirissa. Mirissa has some amazing beaches AND of course amazing snorkel spots where you can even snorkel with turtles. In this video ‪@lifenumber6‬ and I go look for some cool snorkel spots in the hopes of seeing some sea turtles!

    Hi, my name is Ráchelle. 👋🏻
    I'm an adventure-loving travel enthusiast with a huge love for off-the-beaten-track adventures. My passion for video and storytelling is what led me to create my CZcams channel (Tales of Odyssey) and explore the world. Although I also have some regular travel videos, my heart lies with adventure, outdoors, conservation, and travel that most people are not aware of yet. But of course, I also visit some epic places that you have heard of, and here I love to show you around with my own little twist!
    Through my content, I hope to connect you with adventures and purposes around the world to tickle your own curiosity beyond the mainstream!

    The amount of coral reefs in Sri Lanka has seen a steady decrease over the years. One reason is coral mining where people take the coral out to make lime that is used in construction. This practice was banned in 1983 but probably continued because of a lack of enforcement.

    Dear Rachalle ,
    At the very outset I like to appreciate you for your beautiful underwater video but it should have been longer durational . I loved your snorkeling 🤿 with 🐢 turtles but give more screen time so that your viewers can relish your mesmerizing beauty while you remain underwater .
    I have watched your video from beginning to end without interruption and liked it very much .
    Please keep uploading many more such interesting videos very frequently .
    Thank you very much My Dear Rachelle for your nice and alluring video .
