Itinerary

Day 1: Arrive Port Blair, Cellular Jail & Light and Sound Show

Your Andaman Nicobar tour from Kerala starts as you land at Port Blair Airport. Port Blair was officially renamed Sri Vijaya Puram in September 2024, though every ferry board and taxi driver still uses the old name. A representative meets you and takes you to your hotel for check-in. Most Kerala connections via Chennai land before noon, so after lunch you have time for the Science Centre and then an hour at Corbyn's Cove, a short drive out of town and calm enough to swim. In the evening you walk through the Cellular Jail, where freedom fighters were held in solitary cells, and stay for the Light and Sound Show in the courtyard. Book the English show early from October to January. Overnight in Port Blair. (Meals: none. Transfers and stay included.)

Day 2: Ferry to Havelock (Swaraj Dweep) & Radhanagar Beach

After an early breakfast, check out and take the ferry across to Havelock Island, officially Swaraj Dweep, a ride of roughly 90 minutes to 2.5 hours depending on the vessel. Check in, drop your bags, then spend the afternoon at Radhanagar Beach, the wide west-facing curve that TIME magazine listed among Asia's best. It is calm enough to swim and faces due west, so it is where everyone gathers for the sunset. Aim to be there by 4 pm. Overnight on Havelock. (Meals: breakfast. Sightseeing, transfers and stay included.)

Day 3: Elephant Beach Snorkelling & Ferry Back to Port Blair

Go early. A shared speedboat of about 40 minutes takes you to Elephant Beach, one of the best snorkelling spots in the islands thanks to its shallow, clear water and an easy reef a few metres from the sand. You can also try a sea walk or a jet ski here, both paid on the spot. Back on Havelock by early afternoon, you pick up your bags and board the return ferry to Port Blair. The evening is free, and Aberdeen Bazaar is the place for grilled fish and a filter coffee. Overnight in Port Blair. (Meals: breakfast. Sightseeing, transfers and stay included.)

Day 4: Ross Island & Chidiya Tapu Sunset

After breakfast, visit the Andaman Water Sports Complex, then cross to historic Ross Island (Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Dweep) to walk among the ruins of the old British administrative buildings, now half-swallowed by fig roots and patrolled by tame deer. Later, head to Chidiya Tapu, the birdwatchers' point on the southern tip, about 28 km from town, for one of the best sunsets on the main island. Overnight in Port Blair. (Meals: breakfast. Sightseeing, transfers and stay included.)

Day 5: Departure

After breakfast, check out and transfer to Port Blair Airport. Morning departures to Chennai and Bengaluru connect onward to Kochi, Trivandrum and Calicut the same day, so most travellers are home by evening. If your flight leaves after noon, ask us to add a stop at the Samudrika Naval Marine Museum on the way, a 45-minute look at the islands' corals, shells and tribes. (Meals: breakfast. Departure transfer included.)

How to Reach Andaman from Kerala

Kerala to Andaman is about 1,790 km in a straight line from Kochi to Port Blair, across the Bay of Bengal, and there is no road or rail link. There are no direct flights or ships from Kerala to the Andamans either. Every route connects through a mainland hub, and flying is by far the fastest. You fly from Kochi (COK), Trivandrum (TRV) or Calicut (CCJ) to Port Blair (IXZ) with one stop at Chennai, Bengaluru or Hyderabad. The quickest one-stop connection out of Kochi takes about 4.5 hours, and 5 to 8 hours is normal once you allow for the layover. Kochi has the most daily connections, so Trivandrum and Calicut travellers sometimes pay a little more or wait longer in Chennai.

The ship is an experience rather than a shortcut. Sailings from Chennai run only a few times a month and tickets sell out weeks ahead, so on a 5-day trip it would eat the whole holiday. Read our guide to the Andaman cruise if you want to try it one way. Flying in from the Gulf to visit family in Kerala? Many Malayali NRIs route Dubai or Abu Dhabi to Chennai to Port Blair and finish the trip in Kerala on the way back. Full route detail is in our how to reach Andaman guide.

Andaman Trip Cost from Kerala, With and Without Flights

This package costs INR 13,341 per person without flights. With return flights from Kochi, Trivandrum or Calicut, most Kerala travellers spend about INR 35,000 to INR 45,000 per person in October and November, and closer to INR 45,000 to INR 55,000 over Christmas and New Year, when fares to Port Blair roughly double.

Two things keep the total down. Book the flight sector six to eight weeks ahead for December travel, and look at the first half of November, when the seas have settled but peak hotel rates have not started.

Add-ons: Neil, Baratang, Scuba and More

Four nights covers Port Blair and Havelock without rushing. Add one or two nights and the options below come into range. Ask for any of them in your quote.

Best Time to Visit Andaman from Kerala

Kerala and the Andamans share the same monsoon, so a rainy week in Kochi usually means choppy water at Havelock too. For the full month-by-month picture, see best time to visit Andaman.
