First of all, you need to know what corals islands are:

Corals are skeletons of tiny marine animals called polyps. When the living polyps die, their skeletons are left. Other polyps grow on top of the hard skeleton which grows higher and higher thus forming coral islands.

Lakshwadeep islands have many coral islands and are therefore known as coral islands
