Turtle Resort

Posted by imnotracistbut 1 November 2011

Stunning government hotel, with beautiful gardens and views all round. Rooms were large with two queen size beds, fridge and verandah that had a view to the highest mountain and trekkers delight - Saddle Peak. Good size bathroom with expensive tiled floor.
All this if you go during May when it was out of season but the weather still perfect, for 400 rupees (5.50 Pounds). I had the hotel to myself! Best bargain I've ever had.
Trips organised to the sumptuous islands of Ross and Smith, untouched gems, along with nightly walks to see the turtles.

Don't miss Neil Island and Long Island, particularly Long Island which has a small community of 400 people and beautiful Lalaji beach.

A two-hour flight from Madras (Chennai) to Port Blair followed by a 3 hour boat trip followed by a further 30 mins in a car over bumpy roads and you arrive at India's best kept secret!!

Radhnagar beach on Havelock Island in the Indian territory of the Andaman and Nicobar islands is clean, relatively deserted and untouched by the tourist trade.

The nearby Barefoot resort is a group of 10-15 bungalows set in the wood with good access to the beach. Good seafood, plenty of relaxation and one of the best beaches in India. For those who find lying on the beach tiresome, nearby Port Blair on South Andaman island offers plenty of relics from the days when the Territory was a British penal colony.

Daily flights from Madras (Chennai) and Kolkata to Port Blair. Regular daily ferry services from Port Blair to Havelock island. A bungalow at Barefoot resort can be booked via their website www.barefootindia.com
