It has also many historic monuments and ancient ruined islands. But many people usually think that it has only islands and beaches. Many are unaware of the fact that it has many beautiful tourist spots like beaches,monuments,museums,etc.

Andaman tours are organized by many websites in India and I experienced Andaman through andamantours.in website. Andamantours.in gives description about the tourist spots and other places in Andaman and Nicobar Islands. It also offers accomodation,cheap mode of transport and package tours to Andaman and nicobar islands for every segment of travelers.

The Havelock Island in Andaman Island is a very beautiful island. It attracts many foreign tourists around the year due to its clean and crystal clear beaches. The beaches here are very safe to swim and its best to see coral reefs. As per the Times magazine, issue dated 22ndnov, 2004, beach no.5&7 of Havelock Island [Radhanagar beach and Vijayanagar beach] are one of the best beaches in Asia. and they are laregely untouched by humans.havelock has been chosen to turn it into a luxurious tourist destination.

Ross island is a tourist attraction which depicts the efficient administration of ancient british government.This island presently houses the ruins of old buildings like hospital, bakery, govt. officers house, etc, all in dilapidated condition, reminding of the old British regime. Navy has established a museum on this island known as ‘smritika’ depicting the history of the island

Port Blair, the only sizable town on the islands, serves as the administrative capital.port blair offers several tourist spots worth visiting in andaman and nicobar islands. The center of the town is the lively Aberdeen Bazaar. Constructed entirely of wood, it has been razed to the ground several times in the past. However, every time, reconstruction was completed in no time and now it is as colorful as ever. Port Blair is the only place to do some sightseeing

Cellular Jail:

The cellular jail is the most important tourist spot in Andaman and Nicobar Islands. The British constructed the cellular jail in 1906 where they imprisoned many freedom fighters during India’s struggle for independence. It was declared as a national memorial after independence in 1947, and it now houses a museum and an art gallery and holds sound and light show in the evening. The saga of the heroic freedom struggle is brought alive in this famous sound and light show, shown daily inside the jail premises at 6.00pm [Hindi] and 7.15 pm [English].

National movement was flaring up against the British rule all over India and the freedom fighters related to these movements were sent to Andaman’s with long sentences. Prominent among those were from the Mopla rebellion [1792-1947], Wahabi movement [1830-1869], Tharawadi peasant rebellion, Burma [1930] etc.

The construction of cellular jail was started in 1896 and completed in 1906 with 698 cells. The jail was constructed with seven wings, spreading out like a seven-petal flower in its centre and it had a tower with a turret. The three-storey and seven wings building connected the turret.

Great Nicobar [540 kms by sea] :

This island is the south most tip of India. Many would have believed that south most tip of India is Kanyakumari but actually its Indira point in great Nicobar. This is a turtle nesting ground for Giant leather back turtles. This island also has a biosphere reserve area.The above tourist places makes andaman and nicobar islands a wonderful destination for all kind of travellers
