Kadmat is a favourite among divers and anyone chasing calm, uncrowded water. A slim island with an exceptionally long lagoon, it is fringed by shallow turquoise shallows on one side and open reef on the other, giving some of Lakshadweep's best scuba and snorkelling. An established dive centre makes it easy for beginners and certified divers alike, while the pace ashore stays gentle and unhurried. If you want water sports by day and quiet beaches by evening, Kadmat delivers.

Diving and snorkelling at Kadmat

Kadmat is arguably Lakshadweep's premier spot for underwater time. The dive centre runs guided discover-scuba dives for beginners in the calm lagoon and deeper reef dives for certified divers. Snorkellers have healthy coral and clear shallows right off the beach, so no experience is needed to enjoy the reef.

The long lagoon and water sports

The island's long lagoon is its signature: sheltered, shallow and beautifully clear, it is made for kayaking, swimming and glass-bottom boat rides.

  • Kayak the length of the calm lagoon
  • Snorkel the coral just offshore
  • Take a glass-bottom boat ride or reef walk
  • Simply float in the warm shallows

How to reach Kadmat

There is no airport on Kadmat, so you fly Kochi to Agatti on small ATR flights, then transfer by boat or speedboat to Kadmat. Travellers from other cities connect through Kochi. We arrange the transfers as part of your package.

Where to stay

Kadmat's accommodation is in simple, comfortable cottages near the water rather than large hotels, in keeping with the island's laid-back and eco-sensitive nature. Meals are usually included, and the quiet, unhurried atmosphere is a big part of the appeal.

Entry permit and best time

An entry permit is mandatory for every visitor. Holiday Vibez assists with and arranges it as part of your package, subject to government approval, so apply 15 to 30 days ahead with ID proof, photographs and a police clearance certificate. Visit between October and May for calm seas and clear water; the June to September monsoon brings rough seas and suspended transfers.

From the 30-minute callback to our private villa in Ubud, every little detail was handled. Our guide even arranged a surprise candle-lit dinner on the beach. Zero stress — pure magic.

Travelling with my parents and two kids, I was nervous. Holiday Vibez planned every single day perfectly, and the Alleppey houseboat was the highlight. We are already planning our next trip with them.

Best price I found anywhere, and the desert safari and Burj Khalifa tickets were all sorted before we even landed. The team was on WhatsApp whenever I had a question.

The Gulmarg gondola, the shikara ride on Dal Lake — exactly like the photos, no surprises at all. By the end of the trip our driver felt like family.

Scuba at Havelock was a dream come true. Every transfer and every hotel was exactly as promised. Worth every rupee, and I have already recommended them to friends.
