About Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park

The Andaman Islands are home to many bewitching wonders and one of them is the Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park.

Moreover, the underwater world of the Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park is also home to a vibrant coral life. Here is a glimpse of what makes this place an important tourist spot in Andaman Island. Read through to know more about Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park.

History of Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park

This national park is located in Wandoor and was established in the year 1983. It is just 30 km away from Port Blair, the capital of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Initially, it was home to tribal communities. Located in the South Andaman covering an area of 281.50 square kilometers, Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park has always been the point of interest. It is also home to many migratory birds. Moreover, it is famous for its bewitching sea turtles that offer an alluring sight. After the park was hit by the 2004 tsunami, it was shut down for some time but soon reopened. Out of all 15 islands, only two are open for tourists, i.e., Jolly Buoy and Redskin.

The best time to visit the Mahatma Gandhi National Marine Park is during the months of November and May when the Sun is soothing and the waves calm. Monsoon creates adverse conditions due to continuous downpour and Summers can be scorching hot. Therefore, making winters the best possible choice.

Sona's 6 days trip to Andaman
I booked a package with TravelTriangle for 6 nights/7 days including hotels, ferries, and cabs. Overall, the trip was very well managed and totally worth the price. All the hotels and services were great except the last one in Neil Island – Pearl Park Resort & Spa. The room there was very basic, had no proper amenities, a broken bathroom knob, and the door was too close to the bed, which made it uncomfortable. I wouldn’t recommend that particular hotel. Big thanks to my agent Kanchan from Holiday feet’s she was super helpful and always available to solve my queries. Also loved the complimentary photoshoot at Radha nagar Beach, such a nice touch! Overall, a great experience with TravelTriangle and I’d recommend them
