Port Blair to Havelock Island by Ferry -
What You Need to Know.

Traveling from Port Blair to Havelock Island (Swaraj Dweep) is one of the most scenic experiences in the Andaman Islands. Since the islands are connected only by sea, taking a ferry is the best and most convenient way to reach Havelock. Whether you prefer the comfort of private ferries or the affordability of government-operated ones, the journey offers stunning views of the turquoise waters and lush island landscapes.

1. How to Travel from Port Blair to Havelock Island:

The distance between Port Blair and Havelock Island is around 70 km by sea, and ferries are the only way to travel between the two destinations. You can choose from:

  • Government Ferries: Budget-friendly and ideal for travelers who don’t mind a slower pace. Tickets can be purchased in person, though they often sell out early during peak season.
  • Private Ferries: Operators like Makruzz, Nautika, Green Ocean, and Sea Link offer faster, more comfortable rides with air-conditioned cabins, reserved seating, and modern facilities.

Most ferries take between 90 minutes to 2.5 hours, depending on the type of vessel and sea conditions.

2. Why Visit Havelock Island

Havelock Island is the highlight of any Andaman trip. Famous for Radhanagar Beach, one of Asia’s best beaches, the island offers an unbeatable mix of adventure and tranquility. Visitors can enjoy scuba diving, snorkeling, kayaking, sea walking, and glass-bottom boat rides. The island also has a wide range of luxury resorts, boutique stays, and beachfront cottages that cater to every kind of traveler.
