Coral Reefs of the Lakshadweep Islands

നമസ്തേ - Namastē

About Lakshadweep: Welcome

The Lakshadweep Islands, or "one hundred thousand islands" as it translates in its native language of Malayalam, are a small archipelago off the coast of India. This remote tropical paradise is home to many interesting species - be they avian, terrestrial, or aquatic. With crystal clear blue water and flat, white sand beaches covered by picturesque island vegetation, Lakshadweep is an exotic travel destination for tourism. The archipelago is also known for its plentiful atolls and coral reefs.

All its beauty aside, Lakshadweep faces serious dangers in the future, and conservation action must be taken immediately. Climate change threatens to bleach the already perishing coral reefs neighboring the archipelago, further challenge the multiple local endangered species, and drown the islands below a rising sea level. If we wish to save the tropical wonder, the time to do so is now.
