Overview & Highlights
This private adventure trip puts the reef first. You start in Port Blair with Cellular Jail and a day on Ross Island and North Bay, then take the ferry to Havelock (Swaraj Dweep) for two nights. A Discover Scuba session with a certified instructor is planned early, so you are well clear of the 24-hour window before flying, followed by snorkelling at Elephant Beach. No prior diving experience is needed, though age and medical-fitness limits apply. Tell us your age, health and swimming ability when you book.
