Kalpong, the only river of Andaman islands flows through this forest and also boasts the very first hydroelectric project of the islands.
MUD VOLCANO
A chain of MUD VOLCANO is what one could witness in the midst of the thick tropical jungle of SHYAM nagar. The mud produced by mud volcanoes is mostly formed as cold water, which has been heated deep below the Earth’s surface, begins to mix and blend with subterranean mineral deposits, thus creating the mud slurry exudate. This material is then forced upwards through a geological fault or fissure due to local subterranean pressure imbalances. Mud volcanoes are associated with subduction zones and about 1100 have been identified on or near land. The temperature of any given active mud volcano generally remains fairly steady and is much lower than the typical temperatures found in igneous volcanoes.
KALIPUR BEACH
Located 200mtrs from the resort and half an hour drive of diglipur, the marvelous kalipur beach, is an ideal Turtle Nesting Ground and is the only beach in the world where four species of Sea Turtle, Olive Ridley, Leather back, Hawks bill and Green Sea turtle call their home.

Kalipur beach holds an incubating sand and it’s close to Lamia Bay beach.
