Corbyn's Cove Complex
One of the most picturesque beaches, it is ideal for sun-bathing. It has a
tourist complex which offers a range of water sports facilities. 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. The
islands are surrounded by coral reefs, sandy beaches and clear water. The
islands were used by the British in the 19th century, mainly for imprisoning
Indian freedom fighters in the 'cellular jail'.
The climate in the Andaman and Nicobar is tropical. The native people of these
islands are of Negroid and Monogloid stocks. The main tribes are Onge, Andamanese,
Shompen, Nicobarese and Jarawa. The number of tribals is fast dwindling.
