There is no ferry from surat to lakshadweep.

Lakshadweep is near Cochin, about 220 to 440 kms from kerala coast.

U can go via star cruise to Lak'dep, from mumbai.
But, frankly the ship halts at lak'deep for couple of hours only.
I don't find it worth the money, atleast if you specifically wanna enjoy Lakshadweep.

Passenger ship operated by "SPORTS", ie lak'deep tourism run from Cochin to various islands.

Remember you cannot go bag packing to Lak'deep islands.

One has to go only through the various packages offered by " SPORTS".

Pls visit their website http://www.lakshadweeptourism.com

in our plan instead of lakshadweep it will be daman n diu.

Daman & Diu are far apart from each other. Looking at you itinerary, I don't think u can make it to DIU, except if you cut down days in mumbai.

Diu is around 600 kms from Surat.

Diu is definaltey worth visiting, if you have come so far. But it would be very hectic.

As far as Daman & Silvasa are concerned, I would advice you to get down at Vapi while coming from bombay to surat. Its half way from mumbai.

Daman & Silvasa are very close to Vapi. Finish your trip at Daman or silvasa & then goto surat as your last destination.
