Lakshadweep

Are you looking for an eternal experience and want to immortalize your romance under the azure sky in the lap of sun-kissed beaches? Then Lakshadweep is the right choice for you. The word Lakshadweep has been derived from a Sanskrit word that means “a hundred thousand islands” in Sanskrit and Malayalam. Though it is India’s smallest union territory its impact on the mind of tourists, particularly honeymoon couples are huge and unforgettable.

About Lakshadweep - An Overview

Lakshadweep is home to approximately 36 islands and is spread across an area of 32 sq km. Its capital city Kavaratti is also quite famous for its exotic locations. Lakshadweep has been able to hold its beauty and tranquility over the years because it has kept itself away from a rushed city lifestyle.

However, in order to preserve the originality and essence of this place, the telecommunication services are quite weak here. Only BSNL and Airtel networks are available. The honeymoon couples using telecommunication services other than BSNL and Airtel will have to compromise a bit till their honeymoon period is over. Out of the 36 islands present in Lakshadweep, only 10 islands are inhabited and receive telecommunication service from BSNL. On the other hand, Kavaratti and Agatti islands receive the same from Airtel.

Kadmat Island

As we all know that most of the islands in the Lakshadweep archipelago are uninhabited due to the presence of a dense population of fauna which may induce some danger to humans. Thus, the majority of the islands in Lakshadweep are still unexplored. Out of the minimum fraction of islands that are accessible to humans, Kadmat Island is known to be an excellent treat for the eyes. It is also called Cardamom Island comprising of a lagoon (1.5 km width) spread across an area of approximately 25 sq km. The unique ecological features of this Island make it special and worth visiting. The coral reefs present here are covered with seagrass and the presence of marine turtles inhabiting the aquatic zone makes this Island desirable. The Government of Lakshadweep is trying its best to preserve the marine turtles and has therefore notified the island to be a marine protected zone.

Not only the marine turtles but other animals, plants, or any type of living species inhabiting in Lakshadweep archipelago are protected under the same rule. In recent times, there is an increase in damage to coral reefs (up to 10%) due to anthropogenic activities as well as climate change. Coral blocks that are found on the beaches are extracted by a group of people for the construction of building on this island which has further contributed to its damage. Hence, the Government of Lakshadweep has taken some strict actions to control these anthropogenic activities.
