While some larger islands have airstrips, only Agatti and Bangaram islands have airports with regular flights. Transportation between islands is mainly through boats and helicopters.
Lakshadweep has strict regulations on the consumption and sale of alcohol. Alcohol is prohibited on all islands except Bangaram, where it is permitted for tourists.
The culture of Lakshadweep is a blend of Indian, Arab, and Maldivian influences. The people predominantly follow Islam, and the local language is Malayalam. The traditional dance forms, music, and festivals reflect the unique heritage of the islands.
