Sightseeing:
The two famous beaches here are Radha Nagar Beach and Elephant Beach also called Hathi Dera. You could see some a live marine action by renting a glass-bottomed boat and sailing the crystal water, and if you are lucky even spot a few dolphins.
Visit the Cellular Jail at Port Blair. An integral part of Indian history this was where many unfortunate freedom fighters were imprisoned, tortured and hanged by the British. The Naval Marine museum (Samudrika) and the museums of Anthropology and Fisheries are interesting places to gain some general knowledge.
Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park, 29 km from Port Blair, is another enjoyable place to go to, covered with tropical and mangrove forests, it has extremely rare flora and fauna.
Activities:
Swimming, scuba diving, snorkelling, marine life exploration, are just some of the activities. If you are seeking more excitement try out water surfing, jet-skiing and para-sailing.

Havelock is one of the most important tourism destinations of the Union Territory of Andaman & Nicobar.
It is one of the few islands that is inhabited, although most of it is
a natural paradise, replete with white sand beaches, coral reefs with a
colourful array of aquatic life, palm trees, as well as dense forests
in the interiors. Inhabited mainly by Bengali settlers, the island
houses a number of small villages. Covering an area of 100 sq. km, it
lies on the northeast of Port Blair, 54 km by road and 33.5 km by sea.
The
pristine island is a great base from which to hike, fish, kayak and
sail to other islands. It also offers some brilliant snorkelling and
diving opportunities. Radha Nagar beach on Havelock has been voted Best Beach of Asia, by Time Magazine. |
