Andaman & Nicobar Tourism

Lagoons of crystal clear water and scenic beaches topped with a little bit of history make Andaman and Nicobar one of the most perfect choices for an enjoyable, laid-back holiday where you can go on long treks, laze around in the backwaters of the island, or if you’re feeling a little more adventurous, even go for a bit of deep sea diving. From the pristine, untouched beaches of Neil and Havelock Islands to the bustling town of Port Blair, the Andamans have something to offer to every tourist.

The history of Indian independence is closely linked to the infamous Kaala Pani or Cellular Jail, and this very jail (which is now a major tourist attraction) lies in Port Blair and attracts hundreds of tourists every day who want to get a feel of the old-world colonial era. There is a light and sound show that takes place every night, wherein the history of the jail is depicted in a very catchy and intriguing method.

Havelock Island is the major attraction of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and the crystal blue waters along with white sand beaches, all of which are lined with green coconut trees lend Havelock Island a mesmerizing picture-perfect look. This island is one of the largest islands in the Andaman archipelago, and you can choose to either soak in the sun and sand on the beach or participate in the numerous adventure activities offered here, such as snorkelling and scuba diving. Port Blair is another famous tourist spot in the Andamans, and this multicultural town is the perfect place for you to get a glimpse of the local lifestyle and the traditions followed by the people of the town. A gorgeous escape from the bustle of the city life, Port Blair is steeped in colonial history and is the perfect place to lay back and spend an afternoon or two in.
