Harriet & Havelock Beachbreak 4N/5D — 4 Nights / 5 Days
A 4 nights 5 days Andaman trip through Port Blair and Havelock, taking in the Cellular Jail, the forest ridge of Mount Harriet, Radhanagar Beach and Elephant Beach snorkelling.
About this itinerary
Four nights that break up the beaches with a morning in the hills. Port Blair opens with the Cellular Jail and Corbyn's Cove, then a climb to Mount Harriet, the forested ridge across the harbour with the long view over the islands.
Havelock then carries the beaches, a Radhanagar sunset and an Elephant Beach snorkelling morning, before the ferry back. It is a beach-led trip with just enough sightseeing to vary the days.
