Thinnakara Island

Kalpeni Island, Jammu and Kashmir, India
Thinnakara is another gem in the Lakshadweep archipelago, often visited in conjunction with Bangaram. This small, uninhabited island offers the quintessential deserted island experience. The island is shaped like a teardrop and is characterized by its powdery white beaches, swaying coconut palms, an d a shallow, tranquil lagoon. What makes Thinnakara special is its sense of complete isolation and its raw, untouched beauty. It's a place where you can truly disconnect from the world and immerse yourself in nature. The lagoon around the island is perfect for snorkeling and observing the vibrant marine life. The island is a nesting ground for sea turtles, and if you are lucky, you might spot them coming ashore. The absence of large crowds and the peaceful environment make it an ideal spot for camping. The experience of camping under the stars, with the gentle sound of the waves, is truly magical. It is also an ideal spot for birdwatching, as various migratory birds visit the island. The panoramic views of the ocean from all sides of the island are breathtaking.
