Set
in the Arabian Sea, 200 kilometers off the coast of Kerala, this cluster of
islands has sun kissed beaches of endless silver and picture perfect coconut
groves. On the main island is an airport, and 45 minutes by motor boat away
is the resort of Bangaram. Regular flights from Cochin are the ideal means
of getting to the island. With no indigenous inhabitants -just the resort
with its staff and guests, the island resort is located in a lagoon and is a
perfect getaway. There are excellent diving sites to discover, with areas
for snorkeling and a sandy beach for swimming. The resort also boasts an
Ayurvedic Centre for rejuvenation therapy and massage. Idle or adventurous,

situation will purge the mind of the rush and hubbub of modern life in the
west.
