The Andaman Islands are known for their tropical rainforests, white sandy beaches, and crystal-clear waters, making them a popular destination for beach vacations and scuba diving. The islands are also home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, including the famous Andaman Nicobar Island parrot, saltwater crocodiles, and various species of marine turtles.
