A
break from the regular monotonous routine, you feel like taking a sabbatical
off work, so you think of the many options that lie ahead of you. A vacation
far away from home and the first picture that comes to your mind is relaxing on
the beach. A breathtaking scenery right before your eyes and quite affordable
to your pocket too - its non-other than the Andaman and Nicobar Islands! These
Islands (about 570 in different shapes and sizes!) are covered with lush flora
and fauna that makes Andaman tourism quite beautiful. But only 38 of them are
inhabited. These islands are isolated in the Bay of Bengal and are fortunate to
experience both the north-east as well as the south-west monsoon.
Port
Blair, the capital of the Andaman
Islands, is the gateway to the pristine islands for tourists on Andaman tour Packages from Bangalore. Some
exciting water based activities like snorkeling, scuba diving,
sea-cruises, which will be equally enjoyed by
kids and adults too, are available here. Another significant monument which is
now converted into a memorial is the cellular jail which is a popular
destination to visit in Andaman tour. The
first thing that comes to mind reading about cellular jail is ‘Kaala Pani’ (its
colloquial name and a Malayalam movie has been made after it) was a colonial
prison.
Some of the exotic islands that are a must see
when coming on Andaman
honeymoon are Havelock island, Neil island, Baratang island, Long island,
Mayabunder, Rangat, Barren island, and Campbell bay. These pristine islands are
abundant in rain-fed greenery and clear blue waters. The golden sands on the
beach will allure the tourists on honeymoon in Andaman to bask
in their silky soft grains gleaming under the sun. Kids would love to build
sand castles and play along the beach. Taking a stroll along the beach will
help you to calm your nerves and the cool breeze flowing over the sea will
caress your cheeks like how a mother shows affection to her children. A few
days of relaxation along these pleasing islands will rejuvenate your inner
core. Havelock Islands is the largest of the islands and a favorite among Andaman
tourist places. The Radhanagar beach at Havelock has been ranked as Asia’s Best Beach in 2004. It is also
listed as world’s 7th most spectacular beach on Time magazine list. Now this
would be the perfect place to chill and relax on your honeymoon packages
in Andaman.
Andaman and Nicobar Islands have approximately
86% of its land area covered by forest. The forests constitute an integral wing
of the natural resource of Andaman and Nicobar and it houses 96 Sanctuaries and
9 National Parks. Your Andaman
tour operators will take you to
most of these places. Many of these national parks are home to exotic birds
like the hornbills and many aquatic animals like the humongous robber crabs. A
visit to these locations would take you to another world completely different
from city life. Walking through the lush forests would make you feel like
Mowgli in Jungle book. The fresh air all around will make you crave to come
back. And the aroma all around will make you reminiscent of your Andaman
holidays here.
One
must not miss out scuba diving in
Andaman during the holidays. You can get trained and hire the equipment and the
instructor at the beaches. The
water activities offered here are not restricted to swimmers, but also for
non-swimmers too. The only thing required would be a brave heart to plunge in
to the clears waters (of course with a life jacket on) on your tour to Andaman
for honeymoon. One such exciting
activity is the Banana boat ride. 5-6 people are seated on a boat shaped like a
banana and its tied to speed boat and pulled along to gain the rush and speed.
This adrenalin filled activity will be most sorted out by all tourists apart
from the picturesque tourist places in Andaman.
Another exciting activity which is a mix of
both air as well as water borne adventure is parasailing. You are hauled up on
to a parachute and tied to a motor boat so that you can soar like a bird in the
sky behind the boat as it swifts past the clear sea waters. This thrilling activity to check out during
your Andaman tour packages from Hyderabad and
will make you want more. A popular sport to try out is undersea walking. With a
head gear that is provided, this activity needs no help or experience to handle
and walking through the sea bed will help you to explore the flora and fauna
offered to us. The boat cruise
to Andaman Islands exploring the sea will be quite memorable.
For all those folks who are addicted to speed
but have restricted such pleasures on the roads, can fulfill their hearts out
on jet skiing during your Andaman
Nicobar tour packages. But this activity can only be performed on
clear weather days. A similar sport is speed boating, in which you can
experience the same thrill but in the security of the boat. An activity for
those who do not like splashing or getting wet while enjoying their Andaman
Islands tourism is sport fishing.
And the best part of it is you can cook and eat what you catch. Glass bottom boating is another activity
which you can indulge in without getting wet, and yet explore the sea bottom. A
ride in a seaplane is whole new experience for all first timers on Andaman
Nicobar Islands honeymoon. Seating
for nearly 9-10, the short journey of 15 minutes would take up to 2 hours if it
is ferried.
Walking astride of an elephant in the jungle
might be a cake walk for some people. But taking a dip and a swim with him
might be very adventurous for many. Such an elephant is Rajan, who is a total
pro in this. You will find him at Havelock Islands on your Andaman honeymoon packages. These are some of the myriad activities
that you can indulge in when visiting Andaman.
By the end of the Andaman tour packages, your soul will feel cleansed and will help you to return
back to your life with a jest and spirit.
