10 Free Things to do in Andaman and Nicobar Islands That You Shouldn't Miss

March 23, 2022 Weston Hennigan

Sparsely-populated beaches that give way to an ocean brimming with interesting marine life and coral gardens are just one of the reasons to visit the beautiful Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Ghandi Park, Sippighat Farm and the century-old Cellular Jail (now a pilgrimage destination) provide glimpses into the past and present of these peaceful islands with a mysterious and multicultural past.

Elephant Beach

Reviewed By Gopaljalwal - Jaipur, India

This beach is famous for water sports activities ( snorkelling, jet ski, banana ride, scooter ride, parasailing etc.). There are two ways to reach here one is by boat (950/ person) another through forest trekking ( 500₹ for guide for all). If you are fit can go through forest it is adventurous and economic as well. Beach remains open till 3 pm so better to reach there till 9 am to get enjoy of water sports activities. Price for water sports activities are high here compared to Neil Island. Snorkelling is must to do here gives view of lot of different corals with fishes. Depth of water near shore is till your waist that’s why it creates here natural swimming pool. I did swimming here around 2 hours and still remember. It will better you get your own snorkelling instrument because it will help you not only on this beach but on other beaches also. Swimming goggles is must to bring here if you want to enjoy here in free. Don’t give water sports money to your forest trekking guide they will cheat you better to give direct to counter as we faced and caught him red handed. Lat bath facilities available here. No restaurants available here bring your own food only fruits salad n coconut water is available here.

Little Andaman Island

Reviewed By toyalillie61 - Oslo, Norway

We stayed in Hawa 10 days in March 2020, longer than planned because the corona blocked the rest of the trip. But far away from waisted time! We would have stayed longer if not our prime- minister demanded: Come home! Hawa is a family- run resort/ home- stay. Clean and nice, and with lovely food! They gladly discuss the next meal with you, and it was always tasty, fresh and good. Our room in a twin cottage had AC, but we only used the fan. Private toilette and shower, nice and clean. The owner has motorbikes for rent, but there are also a buss and cheered jeeps to take. They also arranged guide for us throw the jungle to the big waterfall, recommended! The beach is just on the other side of the tiny road, 50 m throw the green jungle, and there it is, the largest and untouched beach I have seen, just clean and beautiful. When we were there; no big waives, the surfers went to the other side of the island for day- trips. No problem swimming either on high or low tide. A motorbike- trip to the lighthouse, as far as you are (almost) aloud to go into the tribes- aria is also a lovely day- trip. You can climb to the top and see the huge untouched jungle whom cowers the island. This was only a lovely clean island and a lovely place. So relaxed and Indian, well- coming and including. No begging no problems, (except the corona ; )

Bharatpur Beach

Reviewed By Gopaljalwal - Jaipur, India

Bharatpur beach is situated near Neil island jetty. It is main beach of Neil Isla and must visit.Water is crystal clear water, good for swimming, water sports activities ( glass bottom boat ride, snorkelling, banana ride, jet ski etc.) . Here lot of shops for shopping of shell, pearls made items. You can do shopping here with reasonable price compare to Port Blair. Lat bath facilities available here. Few restaurants situated on beach side. One most important thing is visit to this beach between 10 am to 3 pm because this beach s water recedes during high tide in evening hours so you will be disappointed then. This is flat surface beach where you will not get depth even after 500 metre from shore so you can swim here without fear with great waves.

Reviewed By travelloveoftrina - Faridabad, India

Dhani Nala Beach in Rangat is very scenic.It is very well maintained by the Forest department.In order to reach the beach, one has to take a long walk over a bridge which is surrounded by Mangroves on both the sides. There are a few sitting areas as well along the bridge.So if you get tired..no need to worry. On the way to the beach you will see turtle hatcheries also. Overall ,it's a must visit for all the nature lovers out there..

Best place to let your feet dip into the water while sitting in a tree or on a swing. Also, lots of shade to retreat to once you have collected your dose of sunshine.
