Parks across the Andamans

The Andaman & Nicobar Islands protect a mix of marine and forest parks, ranging from a boat trip over living coral reef to eco-parks built for birdwatching. Here's an overview of the main ones worth visiting.

Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park, Wandoor

Port Blair area · Boat trip required

A protected marine park covering open sea, tidal creeks, and 15 islands, reached by boat from Wandoor. Glass-bottom boat rides and snorkeling here give a good look at coral without a full dive.

Chidiya Tapu Biological Park

Port Blair area · Eco-park

Known locally as Bird Island, this eco-park is one of the better spots on the islands for birdwatching, alongside walking trails through coastal forest.

Mount Harriet National Park

Port Blair area · Viewpoint & trek

At 365 metres, Mount Harriet is one of the higher points near Port Blair, with panoramic views over the surrounding islands and sea.

Saddle Peak National Park

Diglipur, North Andaman · Trekking

Home to Saddle Peak itself, the highest point in the Andaman Islands at 732 metres, reached via a full-day guided trek through dense forest.

Please note: opening hours, entry fees, and permit requirements vary by park and can change seasonally — please confirm current details before publishing.
