Overview

Chennai sits on the Coromandel Coast and faces the Bay of Bengal every morning — the same body of water that the Andaman Islands sit in, roughly 1,200 kilometres to the southeast. The geographical proximity is real but the experiential distance between Marina Beach and Radhanagar Beach on Havelock Island is considerable. The water colour, the reef, the silence on Neil Island at low tide and the weight of colonial history inside the Cellular Jail in Port Blair are things that the Bay of Bengal at Chennai does not prepare you for. The South Indian connection to the Andamans runs deeper than geography — Tamil labourers were among those brought to the islands during the British period for construction and settlement, and that history is layered into Port Blair’s working-port character in ways that a Chennai traveller tends to notice. This andaman package from chennai gives seven days to cover that ground properly.

Bon Voyagers manages the complete ground programme from Port Blair Airport arrival. Seven days allows this circuit a pace that five or six day packages cannot quite achieve — Port Blair gets two full days rather than being treated as a transit point, Havelock gets two full days at the beach and reef, Neil Island gets two full days across its distinct beaches and the return to Port Blair closes with the departure. Private AC Ertiga or Xylo class vehicle covers all road transfers at every island. Private ferry tickets in economy class, all entry tickets, Cellular Jail light and sound show, Ross Island and North Bay boat tickets and all permit charges are included. Daily breakfast and dinner on MAP basis throughout. Chennai to Port Blair flights are booked separately by the traveller.

7 Days

The andaman package from chennai begins at Port Blair Airport where the Bon Voyagers representative meets the group on arrival. Chennai to Port Blair is among the shortest and most direct metro connections to the island — the flight takes approximately 1.5 to 2 hours and an early morning departure from Chennai typically lands in Port Blair with time for a proper first afternoon. The Cellular Jail is the first stop — the colonial prison built between 1896 and 1906 across seven radiating wings, where political prisoners from across India were held in solitary confinement.

The evening light and sound show runs approximately 45 minutes in the jail courtyard after dark in Hindi and English on alternate evenings. Overnight in Port Blair.

Most Andaman itineraries treat Port Blair as arrival and departure logistics. This andaman package from chennai gives the city its own day — and Port Blair rewards it. The Samudrika Naval Marine Museum, run by the Indian Navy, covers the natural history of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands through marine specimens, coral samples, island maps and exhibits on the ecology and tribal communities of the archipelago. The Aberdeen Bazaar fish market in the morning carries the working-port energy of the city — the catch, the sellers and the noise of a real market rather than a tourist arrangement.

North Bay Island, reached by boat from Aberdeen Jetty, holds the coral reef closest to Port Blair with glass bottom boat rides, snorkelling and sea walking available from registered operators at charges paid locally. Ross Island in the afternoon closes Day 2. Overnight in Port Blair.

The private ferry from Port Blair to Havelock departs from Phoenix Bay Jetty and covers approximately 57 kilometres in around 1.5 to 2.5 hours depending on sea conditions. Having spent two full days in Port Blair, the group arrives at Havelock with the city experience behind them and the island experience properly beginning. Havelock — officially Swaraj Dweep — carries Radhanagar Beach on its western side: a long arc of white sand backed by forest, no commercial strip on the sand itself, the water shifting from pale green in the shallows to a deeper blue-green further out.

The afternoon on Radhanagar is the best possible use of the Day 3 arrival. The contrast with the Port Blair fish market of the morning before last is part of what makes the seven-day structure of this andaman package from chennai work. Overnight at Havelock.

Elephant Beach on Havelock's northern edge is the water-sports centre of this day — a 45-minute boat ride from the main jetty to a bay where coral formations are visible at relatively shallow depths close to the shore. Snorkelling equipment is available for hire from registered operators and sea walking and scuba introduction dives are available for those who want to go further, all charged locally. The Kalapathar Beach on Havelock's eastern side faces the sunrise and is rocky, quieter and entirely different in character from Radhanagar — worth the drive for the afternoon if the group wants a contrast to the Day 3 experience.

Glass bottom boat rides are available at Elephant Beach for those who prefer the reef without getting wet. Kayaking through the mangrove creeks on the island's interior is a slower alternative. Overnight at Havelock.

The ferry from Havelock to Neil Island takes approximately 30 to 60 minutes — a short crossing that shifts the atmosphere immediately. Neil — Shaheed Dweep — is smaller, less visited and moves at a pace that even Havelock in off-peak season only partially matches. Bharatpur Beach on Neil's eastern side has calm, shallow water and is one of the better swimming beaches in the Andamans for those who want the ocean without significant current or depth — relevant for families with children or older travellers on this andaman package from chennai.

The natural bridge at Laxmanpur on the western side is a coral rock formation shaped by wave erosion, best seen when the tide is low and the reef around it is partly exposed. The Neil evening has no organised programme and that absence is the point. Overnight at Neil Island.

The full day on Neil Island is the quietest day of this andaman package from chennai — deliberately so after six days of movement. Sitapur Beach on the island's eastern tip faces open water and the low tide exposes reef along the shoreline that most visitors miss by leaving too early. The natural bridge at Laxmanpur is worth returning to at a different tide level from Day 5 — the coral formation reads differently at high tide and the sound of the place changes with the wave action.

Neil's village in the late morning has a working community character — coconut sellers, local produce, fishing boats at the small jetty — that has nothing to do with the tourist economy and everything to do with what the island actually is. The afternoon is unscheduled. Overnight at Neil Island.

The final morning of the andaman package from chennai is the ferry from Neil Island back to Port Blair, taking approximately 1 to 2 hours. Groups with afternoon or evening departures have time in Port Blair after the ferry arrives — the Sagarika government emporium near the clock tower carries Andaman shell craft, wood products and local spices at fixed prices, which is simpler than the Aberdeen Bazaar for a last-day purchase without negotiation.

Corbyn's Cove Beach is 15 minutes from the city centre for a final hour by the water. The Bon Voyagers vehicle drops at Port Blair Airport for the return flight to Chennai. Transfer timing is coordinated around the confirmed departure flight details provided at the time of booking.
