Heaven in water- Scuba diving of Lakshadweep ..!

Far from the city and away from the impurity, Lakshadweep, will draw you with her isolated beauty and will hold your breath spewing out host of pelagic activities (under water activities like snorkeling and scuba diving). She is not just a throng of thirty-seven beautiful islands on the Arabian Sea, but also the ménage of Indian ethnic humanity who are largely dependent on fishing. Sparse yet weighed, people inhabiting here echoes the ethnic culture of Kerala. From certain unusual festivals, the religion of the people can be characterized which prevails in the core ethnic groups other than emblematic Hindus and Muslims.

Incessant miles of sun soaked sand, soft silver crescent shores, grand lagoons and palm-fringed coral islands not only attracts ideal tourists and heathen couples but is also the haven for a diver, a bonnie vista for a paparazzo and a solitude for rovers.

Apart from her cajoling beauty she holds some interesting facts in Indian history. From the traces of the ancient statues of Lord Buddha it is believed that the Buddhists were probably the first settlement in these islands and later on with the arrival of Saint Mohinuddin, Islamic religion was introduced among all the inhabitants.

Not many places in the world come close to the aura and charm possessed by these islands which still remains exactly the same way man found it. Agatti, Kadamat, Kavaratti, Bangaram, Kalpeni and Minicoy are the hot-spots among other Islands.

Deep down the oceanic blue, you will dwell in a different world, red blue green yellow or pick any, just hold your breath to capture the chromatic world of aquafauna.”
