October to May — the dry season with clearer skies, calmer seas and the most comfortable temperatures for walking and wildlife viewing.

Tropical maritime climate: warm year-round. Typical dry-season daytime temperatures range from about 25–32°C. Heavy monsoon rains occur from June to September with high humidity and occasional storms.

Many nature trails in the Andaman region have minimal or no formal entry fee, but rules and fees (if any) can change. Typical visiting hours are sunrise to sunset. Check with the Port Blair tourism office or local forest department for up-to-date fee and timing information before visiting.

Generally accessible by road from Port Blair (nearest major town and airport). The trail usually begins from a small parking area and involves uneven, sometimes narrow footpaths — suitable for most able-bodied visitors but not recommended for wheelchair users. Nearest major access point: Port Blair (Veer Savarkar International Airport); local taxi or rented vehicle + short walk to trailhead.

Allow 1–3 hours to complete the trail at a relaxed pace. Plan for a half-day if combining with nearby beaches or viewpoints.

Wear sturdy closed-toe walking shoes, light breathable clothing, and long sleeves to reduce insect bites. Bring sun protection (hat, sunscreen), insect repellent, a refillable water bottle, and a lightweight rain jacket during monsoon months.

Try fresh Andaman seafood at nearby eateries, coconut-based snacks and local sweets. Souvenirs can include shell crafts, handloom textiles and locally made jams or pickles — purchase from authorized vendors or community-run stalls to support local people.
