With the solitary aim of
creating awareness on ecological balance, especially oceanic
environment, Samudrika Marine Museum acts as a central attraction for
tourists. Take a walk inside and enjoy the fascinating and colourful
displays of underwater life-shells, corals and more, indigenous to this
region.
Though it primarily aims to
educate the masses about the marine ecosystem, it also touches upon the
history, geography and anthropology of Andaman. The museum is divided
into five sections focusing on the history of the Andaman Islands,
marine life, geography of the region, archaeology, and the customs and
culture of the natives. The museum is maintained by the Indian Navy.
