About Port Blair
Port Blair, the capital of the 350 odd islands that comprise the Andaman
and Nicobar group lies to the South-East of India in the Bay Of Bengal. Far
away from mainstream India's landscape, air and sea are the only means of
reaching this live museum. The flora and fauna of the place is very rich in
nature. An encounter informing of the culture and lifestyle of some of the
primitive tribal communities could also be on the cards. Cellular jail - the
most notable attraction of Port Blair's landscape still conserves the
memories of India's freedom struggle. As the sun rises from Bay of Bengal,
the beauty of unadulterated nature engulfs one and all. Swimming in the
beaches and scuba diving are very popular tourist attractions here. The
underwater life in its most vibrant form could be seen from close quarters
here. The ruins of buildings of pre-independence period relive the glory of
early 20th-century colonial life. The other places that deserve a visit are
the Anthropological Museum, Marine Museum, and the Mini Zoo. In barren
islands near Port Blair is India's only dormant volcano. To sign off the
tour on a happy note, a harbor cruise giving a bird's eye view of mangroves,
rain forests and other delights is always encouraged.
About Andaman Nicobar
Floating in splendid isolation, cast of the Indian mainland is the
archipelago of 572 emerald islands, islets and rocks known as Andaman &
Nicobar Islands. Once a hill range stretching from Burma (Myanmar) to
Indonesia, these swirling islands are covered with dense forests and endless
variety of exotic flora & fauna.
