Environment

Diglipur boasts a pristine and highly protected tropical environment.

* **Protected Areas**: The region is home to **Saddle Peak National Park**, which preserves dense tropical rainforests and endemic flora and fauna. * **Marine Conservation**: Kalipur Beach is a highly significant conservation site. It is one of the few beaches in the world where four species of sea turtles (Olive Ridley, Green Turtle, Hawksbill, and Leatherback) come to nest. * **Air and Water Quality**: Due to the lack of heavy industry, both air and water quality are excellent. * **Sustainability**: The Kalpong Hydroelectric project represents a major step toward renewable energy in the islands. There is a strict ban on single-use plastics across the Andaman Islands, and visitors are highly encouraged to carry reusable water bottles.
