Lakshadweep
Been there recently?
Located off the coast of the Indian state of Kerala approximately 400 kilometres away, Lakshadweep is a group of 36 islands off which only 10 are inhabited. Out of these 36, Parali 1 island is lost due to sea erosion. These islands are exclusive coral atolls, with none of them more than 2 kilometres in width, having fantastic beaches and lagoons. The bluish shallow waters and the white sands make up great beach stations. In the islands of Agatti, Bangaram and Kadmat, the coconut trees lining up the beaches form a graceful and charming backdrop enticing a sunbath. Don the scuba gear or the snorkel mask and go for a dive visiting the ecologically important living corals that hold together these land masses and protect them from sea erosion. Swim with the colourful fishes and other aquatic creatures. Take a cruise of the islands enjoying the food, views and local lifestyle in one of the cleanest waters all packaged to make it a memorable and enjoyable holiday.
Nearby Places to See
Bangaram Island
The only island in Lakshadweep which is not inhabited but has tourist accommodation. The tourists and the staff of the resorts are the only occupants of this tiny piece of land. Just like the other two islands here too, all water sports activities can be enjoyed. Tourists can opt for either boat or helicopter (if available) transportation from Agatti to Bangaram.
