Port Blair and Havelock — A 3-Night Short Break on Two Andaman Islands

A long-weekend version of the Andamans. You sleep at Port Blair on the first and last nights and on Havelock in between, which is enough for the Cellular Jail, an afternoon and sunset at Radhanagar Beach, and a free half-day in town. Both ferries run on the middle days, so the day you fly stays clear.

Day by day

Day-by-day itinerary

Day 1

Port BlairPrivate vehicle

You are met at Veer Savarkar airport and driven to your hotel. The evening goes to the Cellular Jail, the radial prison built between 1896 and 1906, where three of the original seven wings survive as a national memorial, followed by the sound-and-light show in its courtyard. The car drops you at the parking area and the last 200 metres are on foot. The show runs between 6 and 7 pm and seats are subject to availability on the day; the gap between the jail visit and the show is a good time to walk the lit seafront at Marina Park.

Day 2

Port Blair – Havelock IslandOvernight Havelock IslandFerry and private vehicle

A car takes you from the hotel to the jetty for the ferry to Havelock. If your sailing is an early one, ask the hotel the evening before for a packed breakfast; whether they provide one is the hotel's decision. You are met at the Havelock jetty and driven to your hotel. The afternoon is Radhanagar, the long west-coast beach that holds a Blue Flag certification, for a swim and the last light. Bring a change of clothes and a towel: the vehicles do not carry passengers in wet clothes.

Day 3

Havelock Island – Port BlairOvernight Port BlairFerry and private vehicle

After breakfast you check out and take the ferry back to Port Blair, where a car brings you to your hotel. The rest of the day is free for the town and its shops. Corbyn's Cove, Chidiya Tapu, Wandoor and the museums can be added at extra cost if time and availability allow.

Day 4

Port BlairPrivate vehicle

After breakfast a car takes you to the airport. Port Blair's airport is small and busy, so plan to be there at least two hours before your flight.

Good to know

Frequently asked

It is enough for Radhanagar Beach in the afternoon and at sunset, and for a swim the next morning before the ferry. It is not enough for Elephant Beach or a dive. If either matters to you, our four-night route gives Havelock a second night and includes the boat to Elephant Beach.
So that no ferry falls on the day you fly. The return crossing is on day three and the flight on day four, which means a delayed sailing costs you an afternoon in town rather than a flight.
Sailings are called off for sea conditions from time to time, and nobody who sells the trip controls that, so the costs that follow are excluded. We rebook you on the next available sailing. Ferry tickets are in the base category of a private operator and are issued once your booking is confirmed, subject to availability.
We quote two hotel standards, Deluxe and Premium, and confirm the actual hotels with your quote rather than naming them here. Most hotels in the Andamans work to an early check-in and check-out, typically between 8:30 and 10:30 in the morning; an earlier check-in or a later check-out depends on availability and is the hotel's decision.
Lunches and dinners, flights, and every water activity. Snorkelling, diving and photography sessions on Havelock can be arranged in advance or through the local representative, and are paid separately.
Starting prices are from ₹18,920 per person in Deluxe hotels and from ₹22,660 per person in Premium hotels. Prices shown are indicative starting prices per person on double sharing basis. Final package prices depend on your travel dates, availability and applicable rates at the time of booking. Contact us for a personalised quotation. Seasonal pricing note: These indicative starting prices apply to travel from 1 October to 14 December 2026 and from 20 January to 31 March 2027. These rates are not valid for travel from 15 December 2026 through 19 January 2027.
