Bangaram Island, Lakshadweep, India
The Agatti Island Marine Museum is a must-visit for anyone interested in the marine life and local culture of Lakshadweep. While not on Bangaram itself, it is a popular day trip destination. The museum provides a fascinating glimpse into the history, culture, and marine wealth of the archipelago. It showcases a collection of traditional artifacts, tools, and models of local boats that tell the story of the islanders' way of life. It also has a special section dedicated to the island's marine ecosystem, with a variety of preserved marine specimens, corals, and shells.
