Amini Coast

Amini is a coral island and atoll in Lakshadweep, west of the Indian coast. It was among the first islands of the archipelago to be inhabited, and its artisans became known for work in coconut shell, stone and coral. Nearby Andrott was historically part of the Arakkal kingdom and is remembered as the first island in the group to embrace Islam. Reefs and lagoons distinguish these small islands in the Arabian Sea.
