Havelock Wandoor Island Escape 4N/5D — 4 Nights / 5 Days
A 4 nights 5 days Andaman escape that opens on Havelock with Radhanagar, then bases in Port Blair for Ross Island, the North Bay corals and quiet Wandoor Beach.
About this itinerary
Four nights that front-load the beach and wind down on the quiet side of Port Blair. Havelock takes the first day and a Radhanagar morning before the ferry back across.
Three Port Blair nights then cover a harbour-boat day to Ross Island and the North Bay corals, and a last, slow morning at Wandoor on the edge of the marine park. It suits travellers who want the headline beach early and a calm close rather than a busy final day.
Day-by-day itinerary
Every day below can be moved, shortened or swapped. Replanning is free — you only pay the difference in what you change.

|---|---|---|---|
| Havelock | 1 | Bowfin Resort or similar | Standard, twin sharing |

Before you travel

- Ferry tickets are included and held once your trip is confirmed: the Port Blair to Havelock and Havelock to Port Blair ferries. Ferries open bookings 60 to 90 days out and morning slots fill first.
- Ross Island and North Bay are reached by government harbour boat from the Water Sports Complex, with tickets and the forest fee arranged locally. Ross Island is closed on Wednesdays.
- Breakfast is included as per itinerary. Any meal not listed for a day is payable directly.
- Carry cash for water sports and site payments, as card and online payments are often unavailable.

Questions about this package
Havelock for the first night and Port Blair for three. The sights are Radhanagar on Havelock and Ross Island, North Bay and Wandoor around Port Blair.
Flights land at Veer Savarkar Airport (Sri Vijaya Puram), direct from some metros and connecting from others, usually via Chennai, Bengaluru, Delhi or Kolkata. Day 1 begins in Port Blair, so a morning or early afternoon landing fits the plan.
It puts the best beach on day one, which matters when flights from the west coast are long and often connect. A morning landing makes the Havelock ferry comfortably.
Yes. The Port Blair to Havelock and Havelock to Port Blair ferries are booked and held once your trip is confirmed.
A calm, uncrowded beach about an hour from town on the edge of the marine park, better for a quiet morning than for water sports.
October to May for calm ferry crossings and clear beach days.
