🏖️ Ocean 🌴 Tropics 🏖️ Beach 🚢 Lighthouse 🏖️ ShoreWith more than 8000 km of coastline and archipelagos lost in the Indian Ocean, India is full of dive sites! The Andaman and Nicobar Islands, in the Bay of Bengal between India and Thailand, are home to treasures of marine diversity around 572 islands. Reefs with vibrant colors -including the Mahatma Ghandi Marine National Park-, in sites still totally virgin... Underwater or on land, the Andaman and Nicobar experience is unique and exhilarating in every way! These islands with their lush vegetation, deserted beaches, endemic birds and flora, and swimming elephants were colonized by the Danes, Austrians, Dutch, Japanese and British before becoming part of India. Only a handful of islands are inhabited year round. Some isolated islands are even forbidden to access: the island of the Sentinels for example is fiercely guarded by 'prehistoric' people who refuse any contact and mixing! The islands are mostly known for their underwater cultural heritage, 'The Wall', on Havelock Island, allows them to observe purple soft corals. Another one, 'Dixon's Pinnacle', is a cleaning station for manta rays, turtles and reef sharks! Finally, off the coast you will have the privilege to see dugongs, the emblem of the state! The islands are very popular for deep and drift dives where you can enjoy the incredible topography of the archipelago! Adventure, service and safety... don't hesitate, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands are your next diving destination, off the beaten track!
