Situated in the Bay of Bengal , the Andaman and Nicobar Islands are still largely undiscovered by mass tourism . Part of India these Islands extend into Indonesian group of Islands.

There are a number of small islands around Port Blair which fall within the Marine National Park and are uninhabited and covered with virgin forests on them.

On the Western coast in the Arabian sea in Lakshadweep Group of Islands . These have superb snorkeling and fine beaches.

The tear-drop shaped, uninhabited Bangaram island, is embraced by a halo of creamy sand. Like in all other islands of Lakshadweep, coconut palm groves are ubiquitous in Bangaram. There are three uninhabited islands in the same atoll - Tinnakara, Parali-I, and Parali-II. All the islands share the same lagoon, an enormous bowl of turquoise blue.

The warm, clear and deep waters of the Indian Ocean pose an irresistible invitation to scuba divers. The Bangaram Island Resort is fast becoming a by-word among the island - hoppers of the world. Opened only recently to foreign tourists, the resort with its simple but attractive housing, has already become a circled spot in the brochures of tour operators all over.
