"Geographic isolation, mysterious stone age cultures, uncharted waters and a rich maritime history give the Andaman’s an exotic charm and appeal all of their own”

The Andaman & Nicobar Islands are a group of picturesque Islands, big and small, inhabited and uninhabited. Comprising 572 islands, islets and rocks, lying in the southeastern part of the Bay of Bengal. They lie along an arc, in a long and narrow broken chain, running approximately North-South, stretching nearly eight hundred kilometers. Belonging to India, but geographically related to Myanmar and Indonesia.

The Andaman Islands lay shrouded in mystery for centuries, due to their inaccessibility and hostile tribes. The islands shimmer like emeralds in the Bay of Bengal. Their dense forest’s, innumerable exotic flowers and birds, crystal clear waters and abundant marine life, exude a charm unique to this forgotten Indian island paradise.

White beaches on the edge of a meandering coastline have palm trees that sway to the rhythm of the Sea. The beats of tribal drums haunt the stillness of the islands forested interiors. Where Shompen, Onge, Sentenelese, Jarawa and Great Andamanese tribes live unaware and undisturbed by the worrying modern developments of time. Large areas of the Andaman’s have been set aside as restricted zones. Leaving these stone-age people in peace and their unique cultures in-tack.

Historically The Andaman and Nicobar Islands have great maritime importance. During the British Raj, political leaders considered dangerous to the interests of the empire, plus other criminal elements were deported from the Indian mainland to the Cellular Jail; the Indian Bastille of Port Blair. Thus these islands came to be known as the Black Water Prison.
