A group of 28 Islands in an area of 1841 sq. km., it is separated by a
ten degree channel from Andamans.
Coconut, palm, casuarina and pandanus are found in abundance here.
Dark crab eating monkeys and pigeons are a common sight at Great & Little
Nicobars.
Great Nicobar is also famous for the Megapode - a rare bird .
Indira Point in Great Nicobar Island is the southern most tip of India.
Surprised! Yes, it is not Kanyakumari as generally considered.
