India smashes two underwater Guinness World Records in Andaman Islands
India has set two new Guinness World Records underwater in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The achievements included the largest underwater national flag display and the tallest human stack ever formed beneath the waves. Both feats were designed to draw global attention to the region’s untapped tourism potential. Near Swaraj Dweep, a team of divers unfurled the world’s largest underwater national flag. Measuring nearly 60 metres long and 40 metres wide, the display required careful coordination between trained divers, safety experts, and support agencies.
In a separate attempt, 14 divers formed a towering human stack reaching 22.3 metres in height. Maintaining the structure for nearly three minutes demanded precise balance and teamwork. The records were not just stunts—they were part of a broader campaign to rebrand India’s tourism.
The Andaman and Nicobar Islands, known for their coral reefs, marine biodiversity, and crystal-clear waters, have long remained outside mainstream travel discussions. These record-breaking feats aimed to change that, positioning the islands as a prime destination for adventure-led tourism. The push aligns with India’s wider strategy to shift from monument-based tourism to experience-driven travel. The underwater records have put the Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the global spotlight. By showcasing their potential for marine adventure, the campaign could attract more visitors to the region. For India, this marks a clear step toward diversifying its tourism appeal beyond traditional landmarks.
