Havelock Island, now officially known as Swaraj Dweep, is one of the most sought-after tourist destinations in the Andaman Islands. Famous for its pristine white-sand beaches, turquoise waters, and lush green forests, it offers a perfect escape for nature lovers and adventure enthusiasts alike. Radhanagar Beach, often ranked among Asia’s best, is ideal for swimming and sunset views. The island is a hub for thrilling water activities like scuba diving, snorkeling, sea walking, and kayaking. With its serene atmosphere, eco-friendly resorts, and rich marine biodiversity, Havelock promises an unforgettable island experience.
Arrive at Veer Savarkar International Airport in Port Blair, where a local tour representative will greet you. You’ll then be escorted to the Port Blair jetty to board your pre-booked private ferry bound for Havelock Island (now officially known as Swaraj Dweep). Depending on your ferry’s departure slot—usually around early to mid-afternoon—you'll enjoy a scenic sea voyage through the pristine Andaman waters, which typically lasts between 90 minutes and 2.5 hours.
Upon reaching Havelock Island, a representative will meet you at the jetty and assist with your transfer to the hotel. Complete your check-in formalities and take some time to relax and freshen up.
In the afternoon, between 2:30 PM and 3:30 PM, prepare to visit the world-famous Radhanagar Beach (Beach No. 7) — celebrated for its breathtaking beauty and awarded the title of “Asia’s Best Beach” by Time Magazine. Spend a leisurely evening basking in the sun, walking barefoot along the immaculate white sands, or simply taking in the magnificent view of the turquoise sea. Stay until sunset to witness the sky burst into vibrant hues over the ocean. After this peaceful experience, return to the hotel. You may choose to unwind at the resort or head out for a casual walk to explore nearby local shops or cafés at your own pace.
Later, savor a delightful dinner at the hotel, featuring a selection of local and Indian cuisine. Rest for the night and prepare for more island adventures the next day.
