Lakshadweep is an archipelago of 36 coral islands which are, in fact, the flat peaks of the undersea mountains. Among them, 10 islands are inhabitable for leisurely stay and adventure tourism in the lap of nature. Agatti Island with a regional airport is the gateway to Lakshadweep. Sun-kissed pristine beaches, crystal clear greenish-blue waters, swarms of colorful fish under the sea, coconut trees dotting the beaches and rolling green landscape \u2013 all these make the tourist destination under government of India a never-never land.<\/p>\n
