Itinerary
Arrival & Introductory Heritage Walk
Arrive at Port Blair airport/jetty. Meet & assist, transfer to hotel and check-in. After freshening up, enjoy an easy heritage walk around the city: visit Samudrika Naval Marine Museum to get an overview of island marine life, and stroll through the nearby local craft markets. In the evening, attend the iconic Cellular Jail Light & Sound Show — a moving retelling of India's freedom struggle at the historic memorial. Return to hotel for overnight stay in Port Blair.
Ross Island & North Bay Exploration
After breakfast, board a short boat ride to Ross Island, the erstwhile administrative headquarters featuring colonial ruins, a small museum and scenic viewpoints. Continue to North Bay Island for a coastal stroll and optional glass-bottom boat ride (or snorkeling if pre-booked). Return to Port Blair in the late afternoon. Evening at leisure — option to visit Chatham Saw Mill or relax at the hotel.
Tip: Carry a hat, sunscreen and comfortable shoes for exploring ruins and pathways.
Transfer to Havelock (Swaraj Dweep) — Village & Cultural Immersion
Morning ferry to Havelock (Swaraj Dweep). Check in to hotel/resort. Spend the afternoon on a guided village and cultural walk, meet local residents, learn about fishing livelihoods and island crafts, and visit small community exhibits that highlight Swadesh/local heritage. Evening free to enjoy beachside dining.
Note: Ferry schedules vary seasonally — confirmed tickets will be provided in your booking.
Havelock Highlights — Heritage, Beach & Local Stories
Today combines heritage storytelling with leisure: a morning guided visit to local heritage points, followed by time at Radhanagar Beach (Kala Pathar) for relaxation and sunset. Optional activities include a community-led cooking demo or a short eco-walk highlighting island flora.
Recommended: Carry swimwear and a change of clothes for beach time; book optional activities in advance.
Ferry to Neil (Shaheed Dweep) — Natural Heritage & Local Memorials
Morning ferry to Neil Island (Shaheed Dweep). On arrival, explore the island's calm heritage: visit Laxmanpur Beach and its Natural Bridge formations (during low tide), stroll the village lanes and visit small local memorials or community centers. Engage with local guides to understand island history and traditions. Overnight stay on Neil.
Return to Port Blair — Museums & Memorial Deep Dive
Return by ferry to Port Blair. Use the afternoon to dive deeper into the islands' heritage: visit the Anthropological Museum to learn about indigenous tribes and cultural artifacts, and explore Cellular Jail Memorial Grounds, Chatham Saw Mill (if not done earlier) and the small naval memorials across the city. Enjoy a farewell dinner featuring local seafood and island specialties.
Tip: Museums generally close on certain weekdays — we will schedule visits accordingly.
Departure — Final Shopping & Transfers
