White Sand Beach: You Need To Add The Andamans To Your Bucket List
A beach vacation is always enjoyable. However, an island beach vacation is even more enjoyable. The Andaman Islands are the ideal getaway because of their white sand beaches, mangroves, and lush tropical rainforests. Water babies will love the chances to dive (the Andamans offer some of the top dive locations in the nation), and beachcombers will love Radhanagar Beach’s immaculate sands.
There are around 300 islands in the Andaman Islands. The main Andaman Islands include the North, Middle, and South Andaman, referred to as the Great Andaman; further islands include Rutland Island, Landfall Island, Interview Island, the Sentinel Islands, and Ritchie’s Archipelago. The 90-mile (145-kilometer) Ten Degree Channel divides the Nicobar Islands from the Little Andaman in the south.
Visiting the Andamas brings you so close to Nature and Wildlife.
The Andamans are best visited between October and April due to low weather fluctuations and clear skies. The peak season is October to April, while November to January offer pleasant sunny days without excess heat or humidity. The tropical island experiences only two seasons.
