Bangaram Island
The shallow waters in the channel between Agatti Island and Bangaram Island provide safe haven for three species of turtle, the Olive Ridley, the Leatherback and the Old Hawksbill turtle. It is rare for a turtle not to be spotted during your boat transfer. Bangaram Island is managed by the eco aware CGH Earth group of hotels in Kerala in which they have attempted to integrate the hotel in to the island with minimal environmental impact.
The rooms are rustic and simple with no luxurious touches. A private hammock and views of the beach from each room far outweigh the basic but comfortable amenities. The fresh catch of the day and the tandoor cooking method will impress any culinary critic. Guests will eat like a king, swim like a fish and enjoy the most memorable sundowners on this paradise beach location.
However, it must be pointed out that this island is not suitable for everybody. If the laid back beach life and awesome diving outweighs the need for creature comforts then Bangaram Island is the perfect place. Please note Bangaram Island does not at present have a hot water supply.
