About Lakshadweep

Islands on request

Lakshadweep is a scatter of coral islands and lagoons off the Kerala coast, India’s smallest union territory and one of its least visited. Only a few islands are open to visitors, and the number of guests is kept small on purpose.

The lagoons of Agatti, Bangaram and Kadmat are shallow, clear and calm, made for snorkelling, kayaking and glass-bottom boats, with diving over the reef walls for qualified divers.

The islands are quiet, simple and expensive to reach, which suits honeymooners and travellers who want to be away from crowds.
