Two tiny islands north of Trincomalee off the east coast make up Pigeon Island National Park. The Blue Rock Pigeon, a local, threatened species that inhabits the rocks of these islands, gave the island its name. In order to safeguard these birds, the islands were designated as a sanctuary in 1963. The region was given national park status in 2003, and the coral reefs surrounding it were added to the park's limits. The Eastern Province seaside town of Nilaveli is located 1 km from the shore of the national park, which has a total land size of 471.429 hectares.
Trincomalee was a highly valuable natural harbor during the colonial era, treasured by all of the colonial overlords. Despite being barely 20 kilometers from the harbor, the colonizers exploited this island as a firing range. The Hikkaduwa Corel Reefs National Park and Pigeon Island National Park are both Sri Lanka's only marine national parks.
