Abstract

Early parambulations in and around the place and on the adjacent islands and the varied nature of the coast and beaches convinced me that there could be enormous scope for a naturalist's observations. Indeed, great naturalists like James Hornell and Gravely and several others in later years laid the foundations for marine research at this remarkable place, though isolated from civilisation but strategically surrounded by the sea on three sides.
