Andaman Havelock Dive Retreat

Four days on Havelock Island alone, built around Radhanagar Beach, Elephant Beach, and a full scuba diving day.

Day by Day

4 Days, In Full

Four days that skip Port Blair's sightseeing entirely and head straight for the water. A fast ferry crossing lands you on Havelock Island the same afternoon you arrive, no Cellular Jail stop along the way. Radhanagar Beach and Elephant Beach's reef fill the next two days, the reef doubling as a snorkeling and diving site. The trip closes with a full scuba diving day at Havelock's real dive sites — Nemo Reef, Tribe Gate, The Wall, and Dixon Pinnacle among them. A private dive operator handles all the equipment and briefing.

Arrival & Fast Transfer to Havelock Island

Private airport pickup on arrival in Port Blair, then straight onto a ferry bound for Havelock Island. This route skips Cellular Jail and the city's other sights, trading them for more time on the water. The crossing takes around ninety minutes by fast ferry. By afternoon you're checked into your Havelock resort, with the rest of the day free to settle in or walk the beach. No fixed schedule — just an early start and a fast finish to Port Blair's arrival formalities.

Radhanagar Beach — Once Named Asia's Best

A full day at Radhanagar Beach, on Havelock's western shore. Time magazine named it Asia's best beach in 2004, and it has kept its Blue Flag certification for cleanliness and safety since. The sand runs pale and fine, backed by dense island forest that stays green right down to the shoreline. Late afternoon is the best time to be here, as the light turns gold before sunset over the water.

Elephant Beach — Snorkeling & Reef Diving

A boat ride to Elephant Beach, reachable only by water — there's no road in. The reef just offshore is one of the healthiest in the Andamans, with clear, shallow water that suits first-time snorkellers as well as certified divers. Boat operators provide snorkeling gear as part of the trip. The afternoon is left free for the beach itself, generally quieter than Radhanagar.

Havelock Scuba Diving — The Andamans' Dive Hub

Havelock Island is the Andamans' main PADI diving hub, and this day is built around it. Dive sites here include Nemo Reef, Tribe Gate, The Wall, and Dixon Pinnacle, each with its own reef structure and marine life. A private dive operator handles equipment and briefing, with options for certified divers and first-timers doing an introductory dive. Two dives is the typical day, with a surface break between them. Non-divers can snorkel the same waters from the boat instead.
