Port Blair to Havelock Island

About this trip

Port Blair history, two nights on Havelock for its best beaches, and a day out to Ross and North Bay islands.

One of our Andaman Islands tour packages from Kochi. Flights quoted from your city.

Who this version is for

This version keeps the two nights on Havelock from our four-night trip. It adds a day out from Port Blair to Ross Island and North Bay. Ross Island holds the ruins of the old British settlement; North Bay is known for its coral reefs and water sports. You stay in only two places, Port Blair and Havelock. That suits families and first-timers who want history and beaches without changing hotels too often. If you would rather add another island than another day out, Andaman Three Islands spends a night on Neil Island too.

Going from Kerala

There is no non-stop flight from Kerala: from Kochi you change once, usually in Chennai or Bengaluru, for Sri Vijaya Puram (Port Blair). With a good connection, the journey takes about five hours.

The Christmas break and the April–May summer break are the time to go, when the sea is calm for the ferries and snorkelling. The monsoon reaches the islands in late May, so the Onam break is wet and the ferries can be cancelled on rough days. Christmas fills fast: book the ferries and the Havelock hotels early.

    We recently traveled to Thailand with Ethan Holidays and had the most amazing experience! Every detail was taken care of, from airport pickups to hotel check-ins, island tours, transfers, and even local recommendations. They customized the itinerary based on our needs, and everything ran like clockwork. What really stood out was their attention to detail and how quickly they handled last-minute changes.
