Andaman is a place
with special mention in history as well in several travelogues. It is an Indian
archipelago in the Bay of Bengal endowed with an abundance of natural beauty.
Pristine turquoise waters, un-spoilt beaches, spectacular rainforests, dazzling
corals, and ancient tribes, make the Andaman Islands your ideal go-to
destination from Chandigarh. In fact, you can get a good deal for an Andaman tour package from Chandigarh.
But to make the most of your visit to the Andaman Islands, you must be aware of
what exactly needs to be included in your package.
So we have a list of
activities you can do in the Andaman Islands and ask your travel agent to
include them in your package.
1. Beach Bumming
When you are in
Andaman, you can find yourself surrounded by gorgeous beaches. With Corbyn’s
Cove, Elephant, and Long Island, you can soak up the sun to enjoy the
tranquility and majestic views around the beach. You will have white sand, a
vast Bay of Bengal, and a pristine environment as far as your eyes can see. You
can feel the calmness and serenity throughout the day that will make you fall
in love with the place.
2. Water Sports
If you are a water
sports lover, there’s so much for you in the Andaman Islands. Swimming, banana
boat rides, parasailing, snorkeling, scuba diving, jet skiing, underwater
walking, and much more. You can immerse yourself in the fun with any of these
adrenaline-rushing activities. Dolphin watching is yet another exciting
activity to do in Andaman.
3. Coral Reefs
To witness the greatest views of
Andaman's famous multicolored coral reefs, visit Jolly Buoy Island or Red Skin
Island. It's always incredible to see different things from the last glacial
era when melting ice drove sea levels to rise and downpour the continental shelves. Entering this
geographical area of Earth is an entirely different journey. The islands are
available to tourists for six months at a time.
4. Havelock Island
Counted among Asia’s most
gorgeous beaches, Radhanagar Beach on Havelock Island (renamed as
Swaraj Dweep) is an incredibly
stunning and tranquil spot to unwind yourself. Although this beach is widely
popular and crowded with tourists, you will find sheer silence with only the
sound of crashing waves on the shore. This is a beautiful
white sand beach, the
best one to indulge in water activities.
5. Cellular Jail
It is the Cellular Jail that connects the Andaman Islands to history. Popularly known as “kala pani”, this jail was constructed by British Empire to confine political prisoners. Cellular Jail is one the finest reminisces of the British era in India. The light and sound show will paint a picture on the canvass of your mind reflecting what extremities the prisoners had to go through when they were put behind the isolated rooms of Kaala Paani. A visit to this place must be in your tour package to Andaman from Chandigarh.
6. Museum Trail
There are some wonderful museums
in Port Blair. The Anthropological Museum depicts the four Negrioto tribes of
the islands: Andamanese, Jarawas, Sentinels, and Onges; the Samudrika Marine
Museum depicts the biodiversity present on the islands. It is maintained by the
Indian Navy in the Andaman province and the Forest Museum on Chatham Island has
a saw mill built by the British.
7. Island Hopping
Havelock Island's Neil Island and Port Blair's Ross Island are excellent half-day excursions. Explore Neil Island's beaches and capture the sunrise or sunset, or visit Ross Island's Naval Museum, cemetery, and remnants of historic buildings. These islands are the epitome of art, with a magnificent environment glittering like pearls in the Bay of Bengal. On these islands, you may participate in a variety of adventurous activities.
8. Trekking
Andaman is usually not much popular for trekking. However, Madhuban (20 kilometers from Port Blair by boat) is an ideal spot for trekkers. Madhuban is an adventurer's paradise, with lush green woods, many indigenous flora and fauna, and mesmerizing natural beauty. The most common path is from Madhuban to Mount Harriet (the highest point in the Andaman Islands). The zigzag paths, wooden bridges, and dense forest cover all around will seek your attention during the trek.
