Diglipur is the untamed northern frontier of the Andaman Islands, a sanctuary for eco-travelers seeking landscapes that remain untouched by the modern world.
From the legendary twin islands connected by a natural sandbar to the highest peak in the archipelago, Diglipur offers a raw, majestic beauty that rewards the adventurous spirit.
Explore North AndamanRoss & Smith Islands: Often called the "Twin Islands," these two gems are connected by a stunning, crescent-shaped white sandbar that emerges during low tide. The crystal-clear shallow waters on both sides make it one of the most surreal swimming spots in India.
Saddle Peak National Park: Embark on a trek to the highest point in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Rising 732 meters, the trail takes you through lush tropical forests inhabited by rare bird species, culminating in a panoramic view of the vast blue ocean.
Alfred Caves: For the truly adventurous, this network of over 40 limestone caverns hidden within the jungle is a marvel. These caves are famous for their unique formations and as a habitat for swiftlets and fruit-eating bats.
Mud Volcano: Situated 20 km from Diglipur near Hathilevel, the Shyamnagar mud volcanoes are accessible via a scenic 15-minute trek through semi-evergreen forests. The trail features both large dormant craters and active emerging mud volcanoes. For visitor comfort, the site includes seating areas and informative display boards.
Kalipur Beach: Known for its volcanic grey sand, Kalipur is a significant nesting ground for four rare species of sea turtles (Olive Ridley, Leatherback, Hawksbill, and Green Sea Turtles). Watching the nesting process under a starlit sky is a life-changing experience.
Lamiya Bay: Located at the foot of Saddle Peak, this pebble-strewn beach offers a dramatic contrast of rugged rocks and calm waters. It is the perfect spot for quiet reflection and the starting point for the trek to the peak.
