Lakshadweep Tour Package — 3 Nights 4 Days
Rs.35999.00/Person
Lakshadweep, India's smallest Union Territory, is an archipelago of 36 coral islands and atolls scattered across the Arabian Sea, roughly 220 to 440 kilometres off the Kerala coast. Agatti Island — home to the territory's only airstrip — serves as the principal gateway for most visitors, with onward boat or seaplane transfers connecting to the more secluded islands of Bangaram, Kavaratti, and Kadmat. Known for lagoons of impossible clarity, undisturbed coral reefs, and a population that keeps the islands genuinely unspoiled, Lakshadweep occupies a rare position in Indian travel — a destination whose remoteness is precisely its appeal.
Entry to Lakshadweep is permit-controlled: every domestic and international traveller requires an Entry Permit issued by the Lakshadweep Administration, along with a Police Clearance Certificate for certain islands. Reputable tour operators handle this paperwork as part of the package, and travellers should always confirm permit assistance is included before booking. Flights operate daily from Kochi to Agatti, and passenger ships also connect Kochi to Kavaratti, Kalpeni, Minicoy, and Kadmat, though sea conditions and schedules vary seasonally.
For Beach & Wellness Travellers
Lakshadweep's lagoons are shallow, warm, and startlingly clear — ideal for travellers who want a slower beach holiday rather than a packed itinerary. Days are built around lagoon swims, hammock afternoons, and unhurried seafood dinners, with no traffic, no crowds, and mobile connectivity that deliberately thins out the further the island.
For Adventure & Marine Life Seekers
Agatti and Kadmat are established scuba diving hubs, with visibility often exceeding 20 metres and reef walls that drop into deep blue water. Certified dive centres offer introductory dives for beginners and multi-tank excursions for certified divers, alongside snorkelling, kayaking, and windsurfing for those who prefer to stay closer to the surface.

Tour Plan
Arrival at Agatti & First Lagoon Sunset
Kochi → Agatti (by flight)
Fly from Kochi to Agatti Airport, a 90-minute flight that offers stunning aerial views of the atoll as you descend. On arrival, complete permit verification and transfer to your beachside accommodation. After a light lunch, take a gentle walk along Agatti's lagoon shore, followed by an introductory snorkelling session in the shallow, coral-fringed waters just off the beach. As the sun begins to set, gather at the jetty for a first, unhurried view of an Arabian Sea sunset over open water. Fresh seafood dinner and overnight stay at Agatti.
Bangaram Excursion, Snorkelling & Sandbank Sunset
Full Day — Agatti / Bangaram / Thinnakara
After breakfast, board a speedboat for the 45-minute crossing to Bangaram Island, Lakshadweep's most celebrated uninhabited atoll. Spend the morning snorkelling over Bangaram's reef, home to vividly coloured reef fish, moray eels, and — with some luck — reef sharks and turtles. Enjoy a beachside lunch, then take a short boat ride to the neighbouring sandbank at Thinnakara, a strip of pure white sand surrounded on all sides by turquoise water, exposed only at low tide. Adventure-inclined travellers can opt for an introductory scuba dive with a certified instructor, while others can kayak or simply relax on the beach. Return to Agatti by early evening for dinner and overnight stay.
Kavaratti Day Trip, Coral Reef & Marine Aquarium
Full Day — Agatti / Kavaratti
Take a morning boat transfer to Kavaratti, the capital island of Lakshadweep, known for its exceptionally clear lagoon and the Marine Aquarium showcasing the archipelago's reef life. Visit the Ujra Mosque, famed for its carved ceiling, before heading to the lagoon for a second, deeper snorkelling session over healthier, less-visited coral formations. Kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding are available for those preferring calmer activity. In the late afternoon, return to Agatti, unwind at the beach, and enjoy a final leisurely dinner with the sound of the tide close by. Overnight stay at Agatti.
Glass-Bottom Boat, Village Walk & Departure
Agatti → Kochi (by flight)
Begin the final morning with a glass-bottom boat ride over Agatti's coral gardens, watching the reef and its resident fish through crystal-clear water without getting wet. Afterwards, take a relaxed walk through Agatti village, visiting the local lighthouse and interacting with the island's close-knit fishing community. Pick up coconut-shell handicrafts, coir products, or dried tuna as a memento before checking out. Transfer to Agatti Airport for your return flight to Kochi, arriving by early afternoon.
