Andaman & Nicobar Islands

I feel that there are but a few places in this world where the term "virgin" might be more apt than the Andaman & Nicobar Islands.

Andaman and Nicobar islands hold a special place in my heart. It was a trip of many firsts for me. My first trip ever to a tropical island, first overnight cruise in a ship and the most exhilarating, first snorkeling experience of my life. These beautiful islands charm and beckon till you never want to leave.

Offering one of the world’s most diverse and beautiful reefs these islands are a divers’ paradise. These breathtaking islands of the Indian Ocean are no less mesmerizing than any Caribbean or Mediterranean island. Virgin sandy beaches, warm tropical waters, quiet unexplored diving spots, exotic marine and wild life make you fall in love with Andaman Nicobar. Most islands are uninhibited and covered with tropical lush forests and tribal clans.

History buffs need not be disappointed, because these islands have historic monuments and jails built by the British when they ruled India. Destroyed in the Tsunami ruins of the jail still remain and so do the many interesting stories of the Indian freedom fighters told by the local guides. The small museum on Ross Island opens the doors to another era while the reefs of Jolly Buoy island to an underwater paradise.
