A good place..need professional Maintenance
The visit to Marine Aquarium and Marine museum is an after lunch event here at Kavaratti.. The Aquarium is good..with varity of colorful fishes..display of some corals may be additional attractive.. The Marine Museum have a good collections, but maintenance is poor, the skeleton of Blue Whale is in endengered state..need some good professional touch touch to maintain the museum.. The Shark Pool is a good concept, but here also need to have some more fish varity .. Overall a good place to visit..to get in touch of Marine science n culture of Lakshadweep..

Numerous curios but not looked after
The numerous curios including artworks, utensils and other things used by the Sentinelese tribals, weapons used by the British regiments posted in Kavaratti during pre-Independence period, fish-aquariums, micro-sized coral-reefs etc. were displayed in the museum. But the museum seemed to lack care and maintenance from the Government.

Marine Aquarium
It is small place if we compare with aquariums in main land, but lots of collections like corals, skeletons etc. main attraction is shark.

A treasure trove that cries for professional care
If one goes by the range rarity and uniqueness of exhibits this can be an amazing place to be. One can't help but notice the lack of professionalism in maintenance currently in vogue. poorly preserved with samples out of preservatives and displayed with inadequate write up i felt sad that the place was crying for immediate attention. Nevertheless its a place that one must visit. though it was written there that photography was not allowed ( why i dont understand..may be they dont want the state to be photographed) i saw everybody clicking away. In deference to the instructions i didnot take any photos.

A small place but one few things to be visited at kavaratti.
It's a small place with few corals, fishes as well few remains. Has a shark to be the main attraction. Use to be a regular visit when I had stayed in here for few months in my childhood. Nothing great about this plAce.
