Bangaram Island
Uninhabited island of honeymoon legends
Why this weekend?
The day-by-day plan
- Fly Kochi–Agatti, then boat or helicopter hop
- Afternoon swim on the crescent
Geography & terrain
Bangaram is a small coconut willow in the Lakshadweep sea, 459 km from Kochi and about 10 km off Agatti's lagoon — an island of white coral sand and turquoise shallows, the archipelago's most romantic scrap of land.
History & culture
The island's resort story is legend-wrapped — a dream-castaway isle where visitors arrive by boat or helicopter from Agatti; its earlier centuries were a quiet copra-and-tuna way station of the islanders' world. Around it, the seaplane and safe boats ferry the famous sandbars of Tinnakara and Parali.
