Andaman Honeymoon Guide: Havelock, Neil Island & Scuba Diving

If your honeymoon dream is powder-white sand, turquoise water, and coral gardens without an international flight, the Andaman Islands are India's best answer. A 5–6 day Andaman honeymoon package covering Port Blair, Havelock (Swaraj Dweep), and Neil Island (Shaheed Dweep) delivers Maldives-level scenery at a fraction of the cost — with Indian connectivity and no visa.

How to reach Andaman from Mumbai: direct and one-stop flights to Port Blair (IXZ) take about 5–6 hours. Ferries connect Port Blair to Havelock (2–2.5 hours) and Neil Island (1–1.5 hours). Book government and private ferries in advance in peak season — our packages include ferry tickets so you never queue in uncertainty.

A classic 6-day honeymoon itinerary: Day 1 — arrive Port Blair, Cellular Jail light-and-sound show, Corbyn's Cove beach. Day 2 — ferry to Havelock, Radhanagar Beach sunset (ranked among Asia's best beaches). Day 3 — scuba diving or snorkelling at Elephant Beach, beach leisure. Day 4 — ferry to Neil Island, Bharatpur and Laxmanpur beaches, natural rock formation. Day 5 — return to Port Blair, Ross Island or North Bay coral reef tour. Day 6 — departure flight to Mumbai.

Scuba diving in Andaman: Havelock's Elephant Beach and Neil's Bharatpur offer discover-scuba experiences for beginners (no certification needed) with instructors, typically ₹3,500–₹5,500 per person including photos/video packages. Certified divers can explore deeper sites at Havelock's Nemo Reef and Wall. Best visibility is December to April; monsoon months (June–September) have reduced options.

Romance add-ons: many honeymoon packages include a private beach dinner setup, couple spa, kayak-through-mangroves, and sunset cruise. Garud Travels decorates rooms with flowers and cake on request — simply choose the honeymoon add-on while booking your Andaman package from Mumbai.

Andaman tour package cost from Mumbai: budget couples packages with 3-star stays and ferry transfers start around ₹22,000–₹30,000 per person for 5 days (excluding or including flights based on season). Mid-range honeymoon packages with 4-star resorts, scuba, and private cab run ₹38,000–₹55,000 per person including flights. Havelock beach resorts price up sharply in December–January — book 2–3 months ahead.

Best time to visit Andaman: October to May is the dry season with calm seas and best diving. December–February is peak honeymoon season with pleasant temperatures. April–May is warm with fewer crowds. June–September brings rain and some ferry cancellations — budget travellers can still enjoy Port Blair and Havelock with flexible plans.

What to pack: swimwear, rash guard, reef-safe sunscreen, light cotton clothes, flip-flops, water-resistant phone pouch, motion-sickness tablets for ferries, and a light layer for air-conditioned ferries and evenings. Carry some cash — smaller island shops may not accept cards reliably.

Island etiquette and eco-care: do not touch or stand on coral, avoid single-use plastics on boats, and respect fishing village areas. Your guide brief before diving covers all safety rules. Families with kids can enjoy glass-bottom boat rides and snorkelling in shallow lagoons — mention age while booking activities.
