The Destination

Andaman Sea, India

The Andaman Sea or Burma Sea is a body of water to the southeast of the Bay of Bengal. It is south of Burma, west of Thailand and east of the Andaman Islands, India and part of the Indian Ocean. The average depth of the sea is about 1,000 meters.

The coastal areas of the Andaman Sea have mangrove forests and seagrass meadows. The mangrove roots trap soil and sediment. They provide shelter and are a nursery for numerous fish species. It is rich in coral reefs and home to many marine species, some of them vulnerable - including dugong, the Irrawaddy Dolphin, and four species of sea turtles, leatherback turtle, hawksbill turtle, green turtle, and Olive Ridley turtle. Barren Island is located to the east of the Andaman Island group and is the only active volcano in the Indian subcontinent.
