Enjoy sunset view in this island. Return to Port Blair and back to the hotel for night stay.
Early morning after breakfast, proceed to the Port Blair Phoenix Jetty to catch a ferry to Neil Island. The journey is approximately 40 kilometres long and takes 2.5 to 4 hours depending on the speed of the ferry. The high-speed catamaran rips the calm seas and offers you a breezy pleasant salty air ride.
Start the day with a visit to the beautiful natural rock formation popularly called Howrah Bridge. The approach to this bridge-like rock is somewhat rough, rocky, muddy and slippery. It is a spot to watch some unique species of starfish, corals, molluscs, snakes and sea cucumbers. Then move towards the very exotic Bharatpur Beach known for its clear blue waters. Go for a refreshing swim, hang around lazily on the beach or play among the foamy waves. Later on, visit the gentle, sandy Laxmanpur Beach of sheer breathless charm. Watch the golden sunset and then return to the hotel at Neil Island.
Start the day with an early morning sunrise in a beach close to your hotel property.
