Four years back, we had gone to the beautiful Havelock Island in Andamans. What was amazing about this island were white sand, lovely color of water, and the fact that it was not much explored. Snorkling is a must try at this place; and also scuba diving - if you do know how to swim. What we missed seeing were the dolphins there.

Talking of dolphins, we did find out that there are Gangetic dolphins in Chilika Lake (Orissa). We visited Chilika Lake in December 2008. Again we didn't see the dolphins there. Got a faulty boat that couldn't go till the place where dolphins are sighted. Saw pink flamingos though! I saw pink flamingos for the first time. Nice.
