Pro Tips

Visit during sunset for the most beautiful beach views.

Carry water and essentials as facilities are limited.

Apply for the Restricted Area Permit (RAP) immediately upon landing at Port Blair airport; though now often a rubber stamp for Indians, foreign nationals must keep the physical copy for every jetty check-in.

Book private ferry tickets (Makruzz or Nautika) at least 3 weeks in advance for the Port Blair–Havelock–Neil circuit, as government ferries prioritize locals and often sell out during the sailing window.

Avoid beaches during cyclone season and monitor weather forecasts closely.

Keep an eye on weather forecasts for sudden changes.
