Northbay Island & Ross Island Boat Tickets

A trip to a place that you every day see at the back of 20 Rupee note without recognizing what that place is. Now, after this trip, you will for sure understand where this picture belongs to. Apparently, the picture seen at the back of 20 Rupee note is the North Bay Island and the lighthouse seen in the image, is the light house at North Bay Island also known as a coral island. Now, this trip takes you to North Bay in Port Blair and the first administrative settlement of Britishers in Andaman Islands, Ross Island. Visit these amazing destinations during your trip to these islands. Both of these destination is a must visit destination that one should not miss after coming to the Andamans.

Few miles from Port Blair is the Ross Island, once an administrative headquarter for the Britishers, before an earthquake rocked the Island in 1941. The British then left the island and took settlement at Port Blair, since then the Island could never recover from the decay and neglect which had set in. Slowly but steadily the nature took its toll, as banyan trees engulfed the buildings thus replacing the structures created by man. This island makes you nostalgic and takes you back in time when this was an administrative settlement for the Britishers. The Indian Navy has rebuilt some of the old buildings like the bakery and the local stores, from where souvenirs are available.
