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.

Vanigoli's 6 days trip to Andaman

All is good but when we asked to stop for about 10 minutes at museum on the way to airport we were denied saying that it's not part of itenary and it'll cost more even though we said we'll pay for tickets. I think little adjustments can be made like these for comfort of the travellers Neil island r

Jeet Chakraborty

Kolkata

Jeet's 7 days trip to Andaman

We were welcomed at the airport and dropped at Hotel. The rooms in BayleafIn were very small but clean. Hardly space to walk after keeping the luggage.Food was good. At the evening we were kept stranded at Corbyn's cove and after repeated calls they send us a 4 seater car for 6 for pick up. No prope

r dissemination of information. Because of this we were late for the light show at cellular jail. Trip to havelock and niel was good but for elephanta Beach travel they provided a jetty without cover.It was difficult for us to sit with children and it was a very slow boat. While returning from Neil our tickets were scattered in cruise ,difficult to travel in such way. No swimming pool at neil island. Had to shift rooms as AC was not working..At portblair I was completely misguided as from 2PM to 4 PM we were kept at hotel due to non availability of vehichle. They didn't show the museum and market got closed while the cab reached. Not a perfect tour as expected. Water Sports at Elephanta beach, Radhanagar Beach and Neil Island tour.
