Rows of dense coconut trees, velvety white sand and a crystal clear blue-green sea spread far and wide, this view is not of any foreign destination, but of our own Union Territory of Lakshadweep, India. These days, this beautiful island group scattered in the Arabian Sea is becoming the first choice for tourists from all over the world. If you also want to spend relaxing moments on a quiet and untouched beach, away from the crowd and noise, then this ‘Tropical Paradise’ of Lakshadweep is the perfect place for you. Let us take you on a tour of those most beautiful and magical islands of Lakshadweep, which look as if they have come straight out of a beautiful postcard.
Agati Island is the main and very beautiful gateway to Lakshadweep.
The journey to Lakshadweep usually starts from Agatti Island, because there is an airstrip here. When your plane is about to land on this small island, the view from the window wins your heart. The thin airstrip built in the middle of the sea and the blue water floating on either side of it gives a very exciting experience. Agati is famous worldwide for its magnificent lagoon, water activities like scuba diving and snorkeling.
Untouched and natural beauty is scattered on Bangaram Island.
If you want to get completely lost in the lap of nature, then there can be no better place than Bangaram Island. It is an uninhabited island, where the natural beauty has been kept completely untouched. The calm blue lagoon here and the glowing water at night (Bioluminescence) give the tourists a feel of a different world. This island is no less than a paradise for honeymoon couples and travelers looking for peace.
Kadmat Island is the home of water sports and coral reef.
The long shaped Kadmat Island is known for its large and very beautiful coral reef. There are very beautiful lagoons on both sides of this island. This island is considered to be the best for kayaking, boating and closely seeing the colorful marine world hidden in the depths of the sea. Sitting on the quiet beaches here and watching the setting sun is a feeling that you will not be able to forget throughout your life.
A unique confluence of culture and sea will be seen in Kavaratti Island.
Kavaratti is the capital of Lakshadweep as well as the most developed and beautiful island here. Here you get a chance to know beautiful beaches as well as mosques with magnificent architecture and the local culture closely. The ‘Aquarium’ here is also very popular among tourists, where many types of rare fish and sea creatures can be seen. Cycling on quiet roads and sipping coconut water is the main attraction here.
Minicoy Island where one gets the flavor of Maldivian culture
Minicoy Island, located at the southernmost tip of Lakshadweep, is known for its unique culture, which is very similar to the Maldives. The local language here is ‘Mahal’. The biggest attraction of this island is a huge and historical lighthouse built during the British period. By climbing the top of this lighthouse, the panoramic view of the entire island and the endless blue sea cannot be described in words.
