HOW TO REACH
GETTING TO THE ANDAMAN ISLANDS
Renowned for its diverse fishing grounds and untouched beauty, this is a dream destination for fishing enthusiasts around the world.
The Andaman Islands sit in the Bay of Bengal, almost midway between Thailand and India, with regular flights from major Indian cities into Port Blair. From Port Blair, a two hour cruise brings you to Swaraj Dweep (Havelock Island), where we are based.
Havelock is the most sought-after destination in the Andamans and, thanks to its distance from crowded cities and the absence of commercial fishing, it is hugely popular among anglers.
