HAVELOCK ISLAND
REGION: Andaman & Nicobar Islands
Situated about 30 kms from Port Blair, Havelock Island boasts of pristine beaches, coral reef and is ideal for scuba diving. The Havelock Island comprises a cluster of small islands known as Ritchie’s Archipelago.
The famous and beautiful Radhanagar Beach is a haven for beach lovers. The silky white sand backed by a forest, turquoise waters, stretches with a sandy bottom good for swimming and some excellent coral reefs that are great for snorkelling. Who wouldn’t fall in love yet again? The beach is a favourite amongst most people, be it an adventure lover or someone who seeks solitude in exploring the forest or someone who prefers walking on the beach enjoying the quiet and calm air while the white sand slips through their toes. At most times, there is a man who offers elephant rides through the forest for a fee. It is said that the sunsets on this beach are truly remarkable, so remember to stick around till the sun meets the calm waters while you click among and hopefully hear the ‘thud’ sound of the sun greeting the beach.
Situated further north from Radhanagar, Elephant Beach is also popular due to its lush coral reef and a favourite among certified snorkellers.
ADVENTURE SPORTS: Apart from surfing, scuba diving and snorkelling, one can indulge in sea-walking, trekking, mangrove safari and fishing.
Sea Walking on the Elephant Beach with a transparent helmet kind of an apparatus on the head. The oxygen is supplied into the helmet through an oxygen cylinder that is kept in the pontoon. The helmet is transparent and you can easily see what is around. You can get a glimpse of the underwater world, witness beautiful corals, feed fish and indulge in underwater photography.
