Super Saver Packages
Formerly Laccadive,
renamed Lakshadweep (hundred thousand Islands) in 1973, is one
of the most spectacular tropical Island systems. The archipelago
consist of 36 coral islands in the Arabian Sea, about 185 miles
(300 km) off the Kerala coast. It consists of 12 atolls, three
reefs and five submerged banks.
The atolls poised
on submarine banks, harbour these islands with a total area
of 32 square km (12 square miles). The islands form the smallest
of the Union Territories of India and the country's only coral
islands.
Though the land area is extremely small, if considered its lagoon
area of about 4,200 sq km, 20,000 sq km of territorial waters
and about 7,00,000 sq km of economic zone, Lakshadweep is one
of the largest territories of our nation.
This charming isolated destination has only 10 of its islands
are inhabited. They are Minicoy, Andrott, Kavaratti, Kadmat,
Agatti, Amini, Kalpeni, Kiltan, Chetlat and Bitra. Bitra is
the smallest of all having only a population of 225 (1991) persons.
