Andaman Islands

Nearly 184 Islands, 189 rocks and 65 Islets, scattered across 600 kilometres make up the group known as the Andaman Islands. Five main groups of islands, separated by narrow straits comprise the majority of the landmass, and they are collectively known as the “Great Andamans”. North Andaman, Middle Andaman, South Andaman, Baratang and Rutland, or the “Great Andamans” are skirted by a gentle crescent of smaller islands. Many of these smaller landmasses are volcanic, and include the popular Little Andaman, North Sentinel, Narcondam and the Barren islands.
