Agatti Aerodrome, Lakshadweep, India

This airport is surrounded by nothing but the Indian Ocean which, of course, makes you wonder what will happen if something goes wrong during landing or if the pilot needs more space to take off. The 4,000-foot-long Agatti Aerodrome is so arbitrary and small that it literally looks like a piece of a larger runway that was lost at sea somehow.

Because of the danger the short runway presents, there have been many suggestions and proposals to extend it, but in the meantime, flights continue to operate normally since this airport is the only one in Lakshadweep, an Indian Union Territory consisting of thirty-six gorgeous exotic islands.
