About This Activity
Barren Island is one of the rarest and most remarkable experiences in the Andaman region. The trip usually starts early from Havelock and travels by sea toward the volcanic island. Guests view the active volcano from a safe distance and may experience beautiful surrounding waters, marine life and dramatic volcanic scenery. Visitors are not allowed to step on Barren Island due to regulations, but the boat-based viewing experience itself is unforgettable for adventure travelers, nature lovers and groups seeking a truly exclusive Andaman trip.
Barren Island trips are highly dependent on weather, sea conditions, permits, authority clearance and operator scheduling.
