The Andaman and Nicobar islands are the home to underwater adventure activities and tourism, in India. The Islands like Bartang which has mud volcanoes or the Havelock Island coupled with the snorkeling opportunities with underwater fauna, equals a great holiday destination. The water locked plains of Andaman and Nicobar bear a population of less than 4 lacs, which makes it 4th least populated region in all of India. The population of the islands has a very little growth rate of just over 6. And that's why it's the 2nd region with least positive growth rate. Of course, a onetime data can only tell us as much.

The islands have the greatest area of more than 8000, among the union governed regions. Population density of a region is also an important criterion to be considered in a census. With only around 40 people living in every square kilometer, it's the union territory having least population density, as shown by the Andaman and Nicobar census 2011.
