Kadmat Southern Sand Banks

Kadmat Southern Sand Banks are pristine white sand formations at the southern tip of Kadmat Island in Lakshadweep. Located within the island's extensive lagoon on the western side, they are known for shallow turquoise waters, coral reef surroundings and untouched natural setting. Part of the 8 km long Kadmat Island, the banks are accessible only by boat and are notable for snorkeling, swimming and scenic lagoon views.

Visitors can expect narrow, exposed white sand banks surrounded by shallow, clear turquoise lagoon water and coral reef on the western side of Kadmat Island. The area is uninhabited with no permanent structures, offering open views of the lagoon and Arabian Sea. Access is by small boat from Kadmat village or resort, tide-dependent, with opportunities for wading, swimming, snorkeling over coral, photography and quiet beach time in a remote natural setting.
