— every island

islands, all of them.

Nine of our favourites, from the postcard beaches to the wild north. Tap one for the guide.

The main event. Radhanagar sunsets, world-class dive sites, hut-on-stilts nights.

Slower than Havelock. Bicycle paths, farm-to-plate cafés, the natural bridge at low tide.

The old British capital swallowed by jungle. Half-day trip from Port Blair, deeply cinematic.

Where every trip begins. Cellular Jail, Corbyn's Cove, and the ferry jetty to everywhere else.

Two kilometres of powder-white sand and the softest sunset in the Bay of Bengal.

Uninhabited island inside a protected marine park. Glass-bottom boats over living coral.

Mangrove creeks, mud volcanoes, and limestone caves you reach by dinghy. A day trip that feels like another country.

The wild north. Saddle Peak trek, twin islands of Ross & Smith connected by a sandbar, turtle nesting beaches.

For the ones who go further. Empty surf breaks, rainforest waterfalls, elephants at the timber camps.
