Imagine walking through shallow waters during low tide to reach a secluded island, surrounded by the Arabian Sea on three sides and a river on the fourth. That’s the charm of Dharmadam Island, a hidden gem located just 8.3 km from Bloom Fort Villa. Known locally as Green Island, this 5-acre stretch is lush with coconut palms, mangroves, and rare flora, making it a peaceful escape for nature lovers and explorers.
