About Barren Island In Andaman

Barren Island is located in Andaman and is home to the only active volcano in South Asia. As the name suggests, the island is devoid of human life and is inhabited only by rats, goats, flying foxes, and bats. The Island is around 139 kilometers from Port Blair, Andaman. The Island is around three kilometers wide and has two kilometers wide caldera.

History of Volcano Eruptions

The first volcano eruption as per historical record was in the year 1787. Again in the year 1991 and 1994, the volcano erupted and smoke continued for months. Since then, Barren Island has seen many eruptions once or twice almost every year. The latest eruption was recorded in the year 2018.

About Barren Island?

If one wants to reach the Island, permission from the Forest Department of Andaman must be taken. The Island can only be explored by ferries and seaplanes. No one is allowed even near to the shore of Barren Island. From Havelock Island, it takes about 4 to 5 hours to reach Barren Island. One gets to see the captivating view of the Island and the active volcano from the ferry. One can also book a private seaplane and get an aerial view of the active volcano. Barren Island is a famous place for scuba diving, snorkeling, and fishing. Many experienced divers come to the island to explore the untouched and pristine underwater world, after taking permission from the Forest Department. For a clearer vision of the volcano, it is suggested to visit Barren Island from November to February.

Pailoor Ashwini

Bengaluru

Pailoor's 4 days trip to Andaman

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip! The cab drivers were excellent, polite, and punctual, while the hotel's location was perfect for exploring the markets. However, we wished we had more detailed information about the Neil Islands Natural Formation, specifically its limited accessibility during low tide

, which only occurs after 2 PM. Unfortunately, our 4:15 PM ferry departure meant we missed this attraction. With prior knowledge of this timing constraint, we could have visited the spot and stayed on Neil Island overnight and left the next day. Despite this minor disappointment, the rest of the trip was wonderful.

Mohit Sharma

Delhi

Mohit's 6 days trip to Andaman

Apart from Couple of places (Cellular jail, Radhanagar beach, elephanta island for water rides) other visits were boaring. It keeps on from one beach to another with nothing new. Hotels at Havelock was in very bad shape & at Neil is not upto mark. Cellular jail visit + elephanta beach rides..

Poorna Acharya

Poorna's 6 days trip to Andaman

The travel agent I got from travel triangle was good for our Andaman trip, we had good memorable trip. Out of 2 hotels we stayed 1 hotel was pathetic. Also , even after telling the travel agent there are senior citizens travelling they booked rooms upstairs which doesn’t have lift, so they faced d

ifficulties going up and down. The cab service provided by agent was excellent. Thank you, travel triangle and Holiday Feet. Beautiful beaches and very decent local people.

Soumitra Mishra

Hyderabad

Soumitra's 5 days trip to Andaman

Recently, I had the incredible opportunity to travel to the breathtaking Andaman Islands with Jubilant Travel. From the booking to the end of our adventure, every aspect of my experience was exceptionally smooth and enjoyable. Anita Ji, our dedicated travel consultant, recommended a selection of stu

nning properties for us to stay in. Each hotel not only met but truly exceeded my expectations with their exceptional service, comfortable accommodations, and picturesque views. The on-ground team was outstanding—always helpful and prompt, providing guidance and support at every juncture of our journey. The drivers assigned to us were particularly commendable; they were not only polite and friendly but also well-versed with the local areas, ensuring we were always safe and informed. The cabs were almost always on time, which made our transitions seamless, allowing us to maximize our exploration of the islands. Additionally, Anita Ji went above and beyond by assisting us with booking thrilling water sports activities, such as scuba diving in the crystal-clear waters which was a memorable experience. She also arranged a romantic candlelight dinner on the beach, which was an exquisite highlight of our trip. Dining under the stars with the sound of the waves in the background provided an unforgettable atmosphere that made the evening truly special. Overall, the trip was superb, with only minor inconveniences that were easily overlooked in light of the wonderful experiences we had. I highly recommend Jubilant Travel to anyone considering a trip to the Andaman Islands; their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction truly set them apart.
