Arrival at Veer Savarkar Airport, meet-and-greet, and transfer to your hotel. Rest of the day at leisure to settle in before the journey north begins. Overnight in Port Blair.
Day 2
DiglipurPort Blair to Rangat via Baratang

Day 3
DiglipurRangat to Diglipur · Coastal Villages
Drive onward to Diglipur, stopping along the way at some of the Andaman Islands' quieter corners — Dhani Nallah, known for its mangrove backwaters and boat rides; Amkunj Beach, a calm, little-visited stretch of sand; Morris Dera Beach, framed by casuarina trees; and Karmatang Beach, one of the region's turtle nesting sites (seasonal). Overnight in Diglipur.
Day 4
DiglipurRoss & Smith Island
A short boat ride takes you to Ross & Smith Island — two islands joined by a narrow, walkable sandbar that all but disappears at high tide. With calm, shallow water on one side and open sea on the other, it's one of the most photographed spots in the Andamans and a quiet place to spend the day swimming or simply walking the sandbar. Overnight in Diglipur.
Day 5
Port BlairDiglipur to Port Blair · Rest Day
A long drive back to Port Blair, retracing the route south. Check in at your hotel by evening, with the rest of the day free — after four days on the road, this is built in purely to rest before the island-hopping leg begins. Overnight in Port Blair.
Day 6
Havelock (Swaraj Dweep)Port Blair to Havelock · Radhanagar Beach
Morning transfer to the jetty for a scenic ferry ride to Havelock — keep an eye out for flying fish and dolphins along the way. On arrival, check in at your resort and head to Radhanagar Beach for sunset. Overnight in Havelock.
Day 7
Havelock (Swaraj Dweep)Elephant Beach
A short boat ride takes you to Elephant Beach, known for its calm, shallow waters and coral just a few steps from shore. Spend the day relaxing on the sand or exploring at your own pace — snorkelling and other water activities are available at the beach for direct payment. Return to Havelock by afternoon. Overnight in Havelock.
Day 8
Havelock (Swaraj Dweep)Complete Leisure at Havelock
A day with nothing on the schedule — enjoy your beach resort at your own pace, whether that's the pool, the private beach, or simply resting after the long journey north and the activities of the past two days. No sightseeing planned. Overnight in Havelock.

Morning ferry to Neil Island, with pickup at the jetty and transfer to your hotel. Spend the afternoon exploring Bharatpur Beach and the Natural Bridge, ending at Laxmanpur Beach for a quiet sunset walk. Overnight in Neil Island.
