ANDAMAN & NICOBAR ISLANDS
On the east coast, the rich forested islands of Andaman and Nicobar lie in the middle of the Bay of Bengal. An idyllic archipelago of gleaming white sandy beaches, a crystal-clear turquoise sea teeming with fish and picturesque coral reefs.
Sunbathe in the mellow sun as you sip from a fresh coconut. Then swim out into the waves where dolphins and many-hued fish will give you company.
The clear waters of the Andamans are ideal for snorkelling and scuba diving. The best beaches are at Wandour, Corbyn's Cove, Jolly Buoy and Ross Island.
