As part of a broader project to develop tourism on the country’s coasts and islands, officials at the #tourism and shipping ministries and the Indian Coast Guard have written a report highlighting the tourism potential of India’s 78 lighthouses.
The lighthouses – 44 of which are on the mainland and 34 on islands – could be incorporated into large-scale tourism projects, ‘including recreation facilities such as water sports, resorts, light and sound shows’.
Thirteen of the lighthouses are in Maharashtra and Goa, while 12 are in the Andaman & Nicobar Islands, 10 are in Gujarat, 10 are in Kerala’s Lakshadweep islands, and eight are in mainland Kerala. Others are in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Puducherry, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, and West Bengal.
