Go2Andaman Tips – Havelock Island Jetty
- Book your return ferry in advance, especially during long weekends or holidays—return tickets from Havelock often sell out first.
- You may find shared jeeps or bike rentals at better prices just 100m away from the jetty gate than from vendors right outside.
- Sunsets are beautiful near the jetty, so if you’re waiting around, consider taking a short stroll to the nearby coastal edge.
- Power cuts are common on the island, so carry a power bank in case your phone dies before your ferry.
- If you’re on a diving trip, don’t schedule a ferry right after your last dive—you need at least 12-18 hours of surface time.
- Keep your hotel contact saved offline in case you need to coordinate pick-up after arrival.
- Keep some small cash handy—autos and local stalls often don’t accept UPI or cards.
