Andaman & Nicobar Islands Separation

The Andaman Islands and the Nicobar Islands are two distinct archipelagos located in the Bay of Bengal.

These island groups are geographically separated by a significant latitudinal line.

Key Separating Parallel

• The 10° N parallel acts as the dividing line between the Andaman Islands to the north and the Nicobar Islands to the south.
• The island of Car Nicobar is the northernmost island of the Nicobar group and lies just south of this parallel.
• The southern tip of the Great Andaman island group lies north of this parallel.

Therefore, the 10° N parallel is the geographical feature that separates the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.
