Just picture
this scenario-golden-white beaches, as clean and uncluttered as on the day this
earth was created. No tins, no cans or plastic bags. No orange peels or oil
slicks-just the call of a cockatoo and your footprints on the sand. Fringing these
marvelous beaches on one side are some of the cleanest waters under the
sun-shimmering turquoise and transparent as glass beneath these, the fabulous
coral reefs of the great
India
Ocean
invite you to marvel at their mysteries.
