Andaman Tourism

How to Reach Andaman by Flight

Taking a flight is the quickest way to get to Andaman from mainland India. A direct flight from Kolkata, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Delhi, and Vizag to Andaman takes 2.5 to 3.5 hours! There are also connecting flights from other airports throughout the country. Foreign travelers should be aware that there are currently no direct international flights to and from Andaman due to the lack of an international airport.

How to Reach Andaman by Sea

Due to the length of the trip, the limited food options, the potential for seasickness, and the lack of entertainment options, we do not advise taking these passenger ships on long voyages. When you get to Andaman, you'll have plenty of time to enjoy the stunning waters there! Typically, ships depart twice a month from Vizag, Chennai, and Kolkata. Tickets are offered by the appropriate Shipping office in these harbors, and it's probably a good idea to purchase them at least two weeks in advance. The longest of the three feasible itineraries from the mainland is from Kolkata to Port Blair, which is 1255 kilometers away and has a sailing time of 66 hours.
