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

Mount Harriet National Park has the third highest peak in Andaman islands. The place has several species of local flora and fauna. The view of the surrounding islands from here is stunning. Its a lovely place for trekking as well. Only thing one has to be careful is that there are a lot of leeches especially after the rains. The park is well known for species like Andaman wild pigs which is an endangered species, saltwater crocodiles, turtles and robber crabs. The park is also a butterfly lovers paradise. On our way up to the Mount Harriet we stopped at a place from where we saw the North island bay and the light house. This spot is special because this is the place from where the picture was clicked which features on the back of India's Rupees Twenty currency note ! Would like to thank our driver for letting us know. The park is named in commemoration of Harriet Tytler, the second wife of Robert Christopher Tytler who was a British army officer, an administrator, naturalist and photographer and was appointed Superintendent of the Convict Settlement at Port Blair in the Andamans from April 1862 to February 1864. Harriet is remembered for her work in documenting the monuments of Delhi and for her notes at the time of the Revolt of 1857 in India. Must visit location.

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.

this is a half day visit and you must go. to reach red skin one has to obtain a permit from the tourism dept and reach wandoor jetty. from the jetty you will be transferred into another boat which will take you to the island. at the island you can use the option of glass bottom boat/ snorkelling (check what is available when you arrive). even if none of the activities are happening, just visit the island, there is also a small trail through the jungle marked. once you arrive back at wandoor, dont forget to see the interpretation centre. no plastic are allowed , so dont even carry anything.

Our Trip to Andamans this January started with a visit to this beautiful beach,around one hour from our Resort.We were truly mesmerized by the clear blue sea water and white sand.The beach is very neat.The beach being far away from the centre of Port Blair,we had less crowds......spent around 2 hours enjoying the tranquility of the surroundings.....Swimming is strictly prohibited due to the danger of crocodiles.....that's what we were told. this beach is a Photographer's paradise....beautiful view of near by islands from this beach.......you have a resort nearby this beach " SEA PRINCESS",where you can have food with a view of the beach.....you also have some shops selling Souvenirs like beads,pearls,necklaces and also Andamanese tribes like Jarawas....
