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

It was a thrilling experience seeing the ruins of the island and how beautifully nature has taken charge. The highlight was the Guide Ms. Anuradha Rao who is a 4th gen Ross island inhabitant and truly a pleasure to listen to. The deer, peacocks, squirrels and rabbits followed her as she has taken care of them.

It's a wonder on earth n thanks to the status of wildlife park, its preserved in most natural conditions Jolly buoy is 30 min drive from port Blair and overall half day visit. You take boat from wandoor jetty to jolly buoy island They have glass bottom boats at the island to give u a tour of corals, fishes in their natural habitat. The variety of coral types is mesmerizing n if u are lucky, u can spot octopus n Andaman turtles(very large) with star fish, sea cucumber n scores of other fishes. Infact water is so transparent That u can see fishes swimming On the beach, u can swim in crystal clear water. It's a litter free zone n non commercial so u have to carry sm food Other places in Andaman ar north bay, Havelock n elephanta, corals are bleached due to human activities, so only place to see thriving marine n coral life is Jolly buoy
6. 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.

8. Chidiya Tapu

Reviewed By 172shalinis
Chidiya tapu is the sunset point of Port Blair. The view of the sun setting over the sea is just awesome as the entire Ocean slowly turns red.....One can sit and lose oneself in the beauty of nature. Takes about an hour to reach from Port Blair by vehicle. The road condition is not good as it meanders through the tropical forest. There is a biodiversity park just before chidiya tapu which one can visit with children. Thereafter one can proceed. Chidiya tapu has a scenic beach with seating area. There are trees uprooted in the tsunami which make a great photo point. Swimming is allowed only inside the enclosed area as there are salt water crocodiles in the area. NOT advisable to take chances.... One can trek from the beach to Munda pahar. The view from the top is amazing. Worth a half day visit if one has the time. Advisable to carry some foodstuff as there are very few vendors selling some basic stuff like coconut water. Beach closes at 5 pm.

Traveled by Makruzz-Deluxe class from a) Port blair to Havalock b) Havalock to Neil island c) Neil island to Port blair. The sailing was smooth & comfortable.We were provided snacks (only in Deluxe class).No sea-sickness experienced. Makruzz -Gold class type ships are more comfortable. Travelers luggage should be handled by Makruzz staff in more professional way.saw them throwing the baggages & 1-2 co-passengers had complained about damaged bags.But they were compensated by the staff,thats the good part.....
