Imagine turquoise waters stretching into the horizon, powder-white beaches untouched by crowds, and coral reefs bursting with life just beneath the surface. Welcome to the Andaman Islands – India’s tropical paradise, a dreamy escape far from the chaos of city life. Whether you’re a beach bum, adventure junkie, history buff, or honeymooner, the Andaman archipelago offers something extraordinary for everyone.
📍 Location
The Andaman Islands are located in the Bay of Bengal, about 1,400 km east of mainland India. They are part of the Union Territory of Andaman and Nicobar Islands, with Port Blair as the capital and main entry point.
Flights to Port Blair operate daily from major Indian cities like Delhi, Chennai, and Kolkata, making this once-remote haven surprisingly accessible.
🌤️ Best Season to Visit
The best time to visit the Andamans is between October and May when the weather is pleasant, skies are clear, and the sea is calm—perfect for sightseeing, diving, and beach hopping.
Avoid the monsoon season (June to September) as heavy rains can disrupt ferry schedules and water sports.
