Frequently Asked Questions

  • Q. 1 : Which are the best spots for scuba diving in Havelock Island?

    Havelock Island is one of the most visited scuba diving sites in India thanks to the numerous dive sites across the island. The dive sites come with many layers of depth thus making them perfect for scuba divers of any level – beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Two of the most famous scuba diving spots in Havelock are Lighthouse and Aquarium. Both these sites are of less depth and are great for recreational divers and beginners. Jackson Bar, Johnny’s Gorge, Minerva’s Delight, Junction, and K-Rock are perfect for seasoned divers. Of course, the scuba diving sites are not just limited to those mentioned above. Havelock has the highest number of diving sites in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and you can explore any number of them.

  • Q. 2 : How much does it cost to scuba dive on Havelock Island?

    The cost of scuba diving in Havelock depends on your intention behind the dive. All scuba divers need special gears that enable them to glide underwater and breathe as well. Given all these factors, you might think that scuba diving is very expensive. However, on the contrary, it is very reasonably priced. If you are a beginner, who may or may not know how to swim, a single dive can cost you anything between INR 3500 to 7000. This package would also include an instructor, videos, photos, and a boat ride. If you know how to swim and want to do a single-day training course for scuba certification, it can cost you anything between INR 10,000 to 15,000. You can opt for a slightly longer course if you want more advanced level training. These courses would cover more than one dive and cost you anything between INR 10,000 to INR 30,000. Those who are intermediate or advanced level divers can go for dives as less as INR 3000 to INR 30,000 or above depending on the number of days and dives they opt for.

  • Q. 3 : What is the best season for scuba diving in Havelock Island?

    Havelock Island is a scuba diver's paradise. People from all across the world visit the island to dive from its many sites. Most tourists make it to Havelock from October through April. This is because there is less rain during this season thus making it easier to dive. Plus, it is not possible to scuba dive during a rain or storm. Many diving centres also allow people to dive until May barring the days on which it rains or the weather is bad. The island also gets a lot of crowds from October to February, as it is the holiday season. If you want to avoid the crowd, you can visit the Andaman Islands towards March or April.

  • Q. 4 : Can non-swimmers do scuba diving in Havelock Island?

    It doesn’t matter whether you know how to swim or not; the diving centres at Havelock Island are always open for you. It is a common myth that non-swimmers cannot scuba dive. While being a swimmer does make it easier to dive, you can dive under the water even if you do not know how to swim. One thing to keep in mind is that while you can dive even if you are a non-swimmer, you cannot pursue a scuba certification course.

  • Q. 5 : How do you reach Havelock Island?

    Unfortunately, there are no direct flights to Havelock Island as the island does not have an airport. But, worry not, as there are flights that directly land at the Veer Savarkar International Airport in Port Blair. Havelock is 70 km away from Port Blair, and the only way to reach the airport is via boat. You can take the ferry from the Phoenix Jetty which is run by the government. This is also the cheapest way to travel to Havelock. The ferries start early morning and then late afternoon and it takes around 2-3 hours to reach Havelock. You might think it’s a long time, but imagine being out there in the vast expanse of the sea. By the end of it, you’ll surely wish the ride could go on a little longer.

  • Q. 6 : Is there any age limit for scuba diving in Havelock Island?

    Anyone above the age of 10 can try scuba diving, but it depends on the diving centre with which you enrol if they would allow children to dive. As long as you have a strong respiratory system and are healthy, you can scuba dive irrespective of your age and gender.

  • Q. 7 : Are there any medical conditions that may restrict you from scuba diving in Havelock Island?

    Unfortunately, certain medical conditions may be considered risky for diving. Since scuba diving requires strong respiratory abilities, anyone with a severe respiratory system may find it difficult to dive. The same goes for heart patients. You can still consult with your doctor to see if you can still make that dive. Also, pregnant women are generally dissuaded from scuba diving.

  • Q. 8 : What kind of water sports activities are available on Havelock Island?

    Havelock is nothing short of heaven for water sports lovers. Diving enthusiasts can, of course, have options like scuba diving, sea walking, and snorkelling. If you are a bit scared of scuba diving, you should try snorkelling, which again, does not require you to know swimming. Those of you who want more action can try jet skiing and paragliding. If you are travelling in a group, you can also try the banana boat ride which promises to be a lot of fun.

  • Q. 9 : Which are the best things to do on Havelock Island?
