Route: Port Blair - Havelock - Port Blair

Places covered: Port Blair, Ross Island, North Bay, Havelock, Radhanagar Beach, Elephant Beach

This is a straightforward group trip with a good mix of sights and beach time. It uses two bases, Port Blair and Havelock, with just two ferry crossings, which makes it easier to manage a group. It leaves room for optional diving or water sports.

Who it suits

Groups of six to twenty people, such as friends, cousins, colleagues or families. It works from November to April. For larger groups, we suggest booking at least three months ahead for peak season, because ferry seats and resort rooms are limited.

How the days flow

On day one, you arrive in Port Blair and visit the Cellular Jail. Day two is for Ross Island and North Bay. On day three, a ferry takes the group to Havelock, with Radhanagar Beach at sunset. Day four is for Elephant Beach and optional dives or water sports. Day five returns you to Port Blair, and day six is departure.

Group notes

  • Ferry tickets. We book the group together, and where seats are limited, we split across sailings and keep people informed.
  • Rooms. Triple and quad rooms where possible, and resort cottages for larger families.
  • Water activities. We arrange group bookings for snorkelling, glass-bottom boats and introductory dives with certified operators.
  • Evenings. Quiet, with dinners at the resort or at a beach shack. Alcohol may be available in licensed places; please do not drink before water activities.
  • Rules. Reef etiquette, no collection of shells or corals, and respect for local communities.

Tips for group leaders

Appoint one person to coordinate with us. Confirm IDs and names exactly as on flight tickets. Brief everyone on safety, dress and reef rules. Keep a buffer for weather.

A note on safety for groups

Group trips and water activities need extra care. Make sure everyone is comfortable in the water, tell the operators about non-swimmers and children, and keep the group together on boats. Avoid alcohol before activities, and agree who is responsible for headcounts. A good operator will welcome these conversations.

Keeping everyone happy

Groups have different appetites for activity. Some want to dive every day, others want to read on the beach. We plan a few shared anchors, such as the first sunset and one boat day, and leave the rest flexible, so that people can choose their own pace without feeling left out.

Customising

Add a Baratang day, a night on Neil, a scuba day or a group dinner on the beach. Share your group size and dates and we will price it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can beginners try scuba diving in the Andamans?

Yes. Introductory dives need no certification, only basic fitness, a medical declaration and a short briefing. Choose a certified, insured operator with trained instructors. Do not fly within 18 to 24 hours of diving, and tell the instructor about any health conditions, including colds and asthma.

Is alcohol available in the Andamans?

Licensed bars and shops operate in Port Blair and Havelock, with dry days and licensing restrictions. Public drinking is not allowed. Do not drink before diving, snorkelling or ferry travel.

How do ferries between the islands work?

Private high-speed ferries and government ferries link Port Blair, Havelock and Neil, with crossings of roughly one to two and a half hours. Tickets are booked in advance, schedules change with the season and weather, and sailings are cancelled in rough seas. We suggest a buffer of at least half a day before any flight home.

How can I protect the reefs?

Do not touch, stand on or collect coral or shells. Use reef-safe sunscreen, choose operators who brief you on reef etiquette and avoid feeding fish. Collecting corals and shells is illegal, and fines apply. A snorkel or dive is best enjoyed by looking and leaving nothing behind.
