Located in the Bay of Bengal, the Union Territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands is an archipelago of over 300 islands, a majority of which are uninhabited. Coral reefs, sandy beaches and clear water surround the islands. The British used the islands in the 19th century, mainly for imprisoning Indian freedom fighters in the 'cellular jail'. The climate in this region is tropical.
