Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park is a national park of India in Wandoor on the Andaman Islands. Situated 29 km. from Port Blair, the Park is located on the South Western coast of South Andaman, in the Bay of Bengal. The parks boundary runs along the coasts as well as some time along island within the range of latitude between 11°22, 06" and 11° 36 -34" N and longitude between 92° 30.00"W and 92° 40.33' E covering a total area of 281 50 ha (281.5 sq km).

Hi Subhash !

Excellent landscape.
I like how you presented this landscape.
Very interesting description provided.
Have a pleasant evening,
Adrian

Is this a place for trips and vacations and can one go wherever they wish if on the ground? It certainly appears diverse here Dr! I can see all sorts of opportunities on teh ground..and the Heli makes an excellent plot maker....for me the hiking would be hard but if there were a heli-pad in areas that would work out well....do you ever get a chance to land and take images?
