Surrounded on the eastern and western side by large lagoons of spectacular beauty, long and sandy beaches that makes the place one of the ideal tourist destinations in the region. The coral reef, reef banks, sea grass and nesting ground for marine turtles etc all are very unique from an ecological perspective.

Everything was so picture perfect that one can hardly sit inside the boat as no one wanted to lose the opportunity of admiring the tranquil environment of turquoise blue lagoon and beautiful tiny islands.
Kadmat island is spindle shaped, broadest in the middle tapering towards the narrow strip at the southern end. One of the largest in Lakshadweep group, Kadmat is 8 Km long and 550 m wide at the broadest point.
