Lakshadweep Islands, floating emeralds of the Arabian Sea
The Lakshadweeps, meaning “hundred thousand islands” are India’s only coral islands. They consist of a group of thirty-six islands and islets. The island beaches are made of coral sands, and the shallow lagoons are calm and safe. The coral reefs keep the outer sea swells at bay. There are many opportunities for exciting sightings of huge sea turtles and frolicking dolphins.
Bangaram is the only island which hosts visitors. Breathtaking coral reefs, sparkling blue lagoons, silvery white beaches and lush green coconut palms surround the small picturesque island. The teardrop shaped Bangaram Island is an ideal getaway for sun and sand lovers. Leisurely walks on the beach, a short boat ride to watch the hermit crabs and magical sunsets shimmering up the sea.
Bangaram offers scuba diving, kayaking, deep-sea fishing and snorkeling to the adventurous. A recently discovered shipwreck makes deep sea diving interesting and exciting. Delicious coastal and local island cuisines use coconut and the daily catch of fish and seafood. Fusion and international food is served, too.
A Lakshadweep holiday is sure to unwind you and send you home recharged!
