There are 3 ways to reach Lakshadweep:
Flights; Helicopters and Ship
For Ship, check this site http://lakport.nic.in/ (they leave from a couple of towns in Kerala - Calicut, Kochi and Karnataka - Mangalore
For Helicopters, use http://www.lakshadweep.nic.in/heli.htm (also from Kerala - Calicut and Kochi)
For flights, use http://indian-airlines.nic.in/ (there are flights from Goa and Kochi)

You could also look-up more details thru these web-sites: http://www.lakshadweeptourism.com/ http://www.lakshadweep.nic.in/
As a foreigner, I believe you are only allowed to go to 3 islands in Lakshadweep (Agatti, Kavaratti and and even then you need to get permits. Your hotel or package tour operator maybe able to get you those permits.
