Best time to Visit

The best time to visit the Andaman Islands is from mid-October to the end of March.

Season ideally begins at the end of September when the rains recede and generally dry weather continues on to May. Tourists flock the island from November through February with clear skies and bearable heat.

Water activities remain open all through the year except in rare cases of cyclones and storms. You can customise domestic holiday packages to Andaman Islands. The Sea Walk is suspended from mid-May until September. Elephant Beach in the Havelock Island and some others remain inaccessible by boat during the monsoons.

How to reach

Almost 1400 kilometre away from mainland India, the best option to get in is on a flight from any major city, including Kolkata, Chennai and Kochi, to the airport in Port Blair.

Five ships operate between the mainland and the islands, connected to Kolkata, Chennai and Vizag ports. Your journey could take a couple of days, but the beauty of the seas remains unparalleled. The islands are interconnected through ferry services. Bigger islands have well laid out roads with good, if not great, public transport as well. Buses ply at regular intervals to all major towns.
