DURATION
03 DAYS
Unaffected by the dirt or pollution caused by human habitat, Jolly Bouy, is a spotless beauty of Andaman. We shall start with 30km long drive from Port Blair to Wandoor after breakfast. The boat shall be boarded from Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park. In another hour you will reach Jolly Bouy. The island is famous for the best scuba diving experience. Thanks to the strict zero plastic policy of the island, the visibility is the best. This purest form of underwater marine life can only be experiencedat Jolly Bouy. The coral reefs and the types of marine creatures found here are also quite amusing. If not Scuba diving, then at least snorkeling must be on your wish-list while visiting this island. Those avoiding the waters can try the glass bottom boat rides. Rambling in the green forest on this island can be an exhilarating experience as well.
Post-lunch, we shall take the ferry back to Wandoor beach and then drive to Chidiya Tapu. The name Chidiya Tapu literally means ‘Birds’ Island’. It is a haven for a number of birds and animals of all varieties. It is almost a natural mini zoo. Wild Boars and groups of deer are commonly spotted here. More than 46 varieties of birds including some exotic migratory birds are found here. Carry your binoculars to spot all the chirping birds in the Biological Park of Chidiya Tapu. Besides this, caged reptiles, wild orchids and tall Mahua trees show you the forest wealth preserved in this small village.
End your day by witnessing the most surreal sunset from the Tapu’s Sunset Point. This is the end of the land that ensures an uninterrupted view of the gorgeous sky painted in all colours of sunset. Post sunset we move back to Port Blair. You can explore the local market and nightlight of the city by opting for either candle light dinner or bar hopping.
