Andaman & Nicobar Islands

The Andaman Islands are an archipelago in India’s Bay of Bengal, fast emerging as one of the world’s sought-after tourist destinations. It is the dream destination for the eco-friendly tourist and has an interesting history through the British and Dutch occupation of India.

Roughly made up of 572 islands stretching over 800 km, the Andamans are known for their palm lined, white sand beaches, mangroves and rainforests.
