About 1370 kilometre east of mainland India, the archipelago that is Andaman Islands in the Bay of Bengal with Myanmar to the east and north, is an idyllic landscape of translucent waters, sun-dappled, white beaches, mangrove wilderness and coconut groves offering a cool shade to your hammock as it sways gently in the wind. A part of the Union Territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands, the Andaman Islands are settled by Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Myanmarese and Nicobarese folk, though they are primarily home to the indigenous Jarawa and Sentinelese tribes. Of the 572 islands including the Myanmar-controlled Coco Islands in the north, only a few can be accessed by tourists, the remaining are out of bounds to protect the right to privacy of the Sentinelese who are to this day wary of contact with the outside world. For its turquoise waters, sugary sands and sun-drenched beaches, Havelock is a magnet for ardent divers and leisure seekers. Port Blair’s perfect setting and history, home to the Cellular Jail outside of the very British Ross and Viper Islands, will be the perfect starting point for your sojourn into the Andaman Islands.

Port Blair
Before you begin to shortlist the places to visit in Andaman, you need to thoroughly round up its capital city to get a sense of the land’s cultural heritage and its grim history. Discover Port Blair’s wealth of museums, the Japanese bunkers from World War II, the highest peak on the island, its exotic marine life, a Marine Park, and water sports opportunities.

Explore the history : A gateway into the Andaman Islands, a short stay in Port Blair will acquaint you with the island’s colonial history among other things. Begin at the infamous Cellular Jail National Memorial, an erstwhile British prison which held political prisoners, which is today a shrine embodying the sacrifice of the freedom fighters who shared books, exchanged ideas and debated each other within the dark walls of the Kaala Pani. Port Blair’s Anthropological Museum should be your next stop if you wish to get a perspective on the indigenous tribes that made the island home. The Jarawa chest guard including some Sentinelese relics will be of particular interest.

Take in a breathtaking sunset : Port Blair’s primary beach, the slightly busy, Corbyn Cove Beach is perfect to embrace a sky painted in all kinds of reds and oranges at sundown. The Munda Pahad Beach on Chidiya Tapu is less-crowded making it a better place to enjoy the sunset.

Glass bottom boat rides : Semi-submarine and glass bottom boat rides have picked up in the past decade where you can see the marine life of the island as you cruise the translucent waters.

Shop for souvenirs : In the Andaman Islands, there is no other place than Port Blair to pick up some unique bric-a-brac from the pretty little shops lining the main road in most areas. Sift through their collection of bamboo trinkets, seashell jewellery and a whole range of wall hangings and table decorations. The state-owned handicraft outlet, Sagarika, is where you can get everything under a roof.

Tuck into deep sea delights : While seafood is a part of the everyday diet, there are a few restaurants in Port Blair that do a nifty job of them. New Lighthouse Restaurant, for instance, has a lively open-air setting and is known for its lobster, crab and snapper dishes. From grilled starters to more textured mains, you are sure to satiate your craving for fresh seafood here. For a tandoori take on the fresh catch of the day, no better place than Lighthouse Residency offering a hearty seafood fare without burning a hole in your pocket.

Havelock Island
Havelock is a 90 to 120-minute ferry ride from Port Blair’s Haddo wharf and is a major part of all Andaman holiday packages. Book your tickets online with a private operator to cover the 57-odd kilometres to an island which is largely virgin considering the rate at which brick and mortar hotels are replacing the quaint beach huts made of bamboo. Most travellers don’t venture any beyond the heavily forested Havelock (Swaraj Deep), a beach paradise known for offering South Asia’s best diving experience. If nothing else you will be enticed by the aquamarine shallows to go in for a swim.

Radhanagar Beach : Among things to do in Andaman and the top sights of Havelock Island is the Radhanagar Beach, a powdery-white stretch of sand receiving cobalt blue swells through the day. The beach is about 11 kilometre southwest of the main Havelock jetty, and you could do better by visiting very early in the day to beat the crowds. Predictably, sunsets here are remarkable as they dye the sky and subsequently the waters and the sands in all manner of purple and orange.

Elephant Beach : The whitewashed sands of Elephant Beach are somewhat remote and disappear in the rains and high tide. A trudge of about 2 kilometre (40 minutes) down a cross-island road will bring you to Havelock’s northwestern coastline which gets busy with tourists for the variety of services it hawks from banana boat rides, snorkelling trip aboard a snorkelling charter, jet skis, to sea walks - a first in the country. Start as early as you can to enjoy some solitude here before the whole circus begins.

Neil’s Cove : A quick 10-minute walk from the Radhanagar Beach brings you to the sheltered sand and azure waters of Neil’s Cove. The sea is perfect here for snorkelling and the presence of several fresh water streams make it ideal for swimming too. However, you are prohibited from swimming here around sunrise and sunset. But one must also be careful about snorkelling in the cove since it is frequented by saltwater crocodiles. The authorities issue alert in case of a sighting.

Kalapathar Beach : Giant black boulders symbolise the Kalapathar Beach which is a slender strip of sun-toasted, caramel sands fronting a very blue sea. This is an extension of Beach 5 and is located on one end of Havelock Island. To steer clear of the crowds, stroll further towards the south and you can have the entire place to yourself. The waters are placid and good for a refreshing dip on a balmy day. The waters contain small patches of corals which are an important part of this fragile ecosystem; so take extra care when you go swimming in them. On the shore there are a few sundecks and beach umbrellas for those planning to catch a tan; else you can sit around in the little picnic area under the shade of Casuarina trees and sip on fresh coconut nectar or mango juice. The sunrise over Kalapathar is the most rewarding, and naturally bring in troops of photo enthusiasts.

Neil Island
Neil Island or Shaheed Dweep might not be as luxuriant as its northern neighbour, but it is as unhurried and idyllic with its own unique natural setting. A land of dense coconut groves, paddy fields and fruit orchards with a bazaar at its heart called Neil Kendra, you will experience the languid pace of island life here. Boats arrive into its jetty just 500 metre north of Neil Kendra all the way from Port Blair and Havelock. From the former’s Phoenix Bay Jetty it is a two-hour ride to Neil Island, where as from Havelock to Neil the journey time is cut down by half. If you are keen on exploring the island, its residential neighbourhood, the waterfront - its Beach 4 in particular, the local market, rent out a bicycle for the day and begin soon after sunrise when daily life is yet to pick up steam and you have ample time to soak up the atmospherics.

Best time to visit Andaman
There are three predominant seasons in Andaman; the summer, winter and monsoon, and each governed by the presence of the Bay of Bengal giving it an overall tropical climate. Monsoons between July and September should be avoided like plague owing to the tropical storms, high tides and incessant rains. October to March, the winter season, experiences a mild lowering of temperature averaging between 20 and 30 degree Celsius, making it the best time to visit the andaman islands. The summer months between April and June are also reasonably good to visit Andamans, whether it is Port Blair, Ross and Smith Islands from Diglipur, Havelock Island, Neil Island or Little Andaman. The lowest summer temperature is a pleasant 24 degree Celsius with cool breeze always wafting from the sea, but it can peak to a 37 degree Celsius, so avoid the noon time for exploration.
