For Jolly Buoy, the first booking question is whether access is available on your chosen date. Once that is confirmed, organise your ticket and journey to Wandoor around the reporting time.
Our Jolly Buoy Round Trip is a round-trip boat booking for a visit to a protected island setting. It suits travellers looking for coastal scenery and a nature-focused outing during their Port Blair stay.
Jolly Buoy ticket price and listed schedule
The current starting fare is ₹1,600 per person. The activity lists:
- Reporting point: Wandoor Jetty
- Reporting time: by 10:00 AM
- Departure: 10:30 AM
- Estimated finish: 3:30 PM
- Approximate outing duration: five hours
These details were checked on 15 October 2026. The displayed schedule is a planning guide; your final confirmation and the boat crew's instructions take precedence on the day. The overall duration includes the outing and should not be read as five hours of sailing.
Arrange your journey to Wandoor separately
The activity uses self-reporting at Wandoor Jetty. The boat ticket does not mean a vehicle will collect you from your Port Blair hotel.
Arrange your local transport after confirming the reporting instructions. Allow a buffer for reaching the jetty, locating the boarding point and completing any required formalities. The scheduled departure is later than the reporting time, so plan to meet the 10:00 AM reporting requirement.
Keep the booking confirmation and requested identification accessible instead of packing them in a bag that is difficult to reach.
Understand what is included
The listing describes round-trip boat travel and trip coordination support. Meals, beverages, personal expenses and anything not specifically included are separate. Additional permit or operational charges may apply.
Before paying, check whether any required permit or entry charge is included in your particular booking. If you want an additional activity, ask about availability, cost and permissions separately. Do not assume that a boat ticket includes every experience offered at the destination.
For four passengers paying the listed fare, the boat-ticket total would be ₹6,400, before any additional charges. Confirm the final total and applicable child fare for your group.
Confirm access before fixing the rest of the day
Jolly Buoy access depends on seasonal permissions, local regulations, weather and operational clearance. A listed departure time does not establish that the island will operate on every date.
Confirm availability before arranging a tightly timed day around the trip. Follow current protected-area rules, including restrictions on items you may carry, and keep the island free of litter. Ask for current packing guidance when your booking is confirmed.
Leave a buffer after the estimated return, particularly if you are considering another reservation later that day.
Compare other Port Blair boat outings
If Jolly Buoy does not fit your date or interests, you can check North Bay Round Trip for a single-island outing, Ross Island Round Trip for heritage walks, or Ross Island & North Bay Round Trip for both Ross Island and North Bay.
Each has its own boarding instructions, duration and inclusions. Treat these as separate choices requiring their own availability check; they are not automatic substitutions for a Jolly Buoy booking.
