Government Ferry

When it comes to connecting the stunning islands of the Andaman archipelago, the Government Ferry Service stands as the oldest and most steadfast player. If you're seeking a unique island-hopping adventure, we recommend including a one-way journey on the Government Ferry in your itinerary. While the seating may not be as plush as that of a cruise, the experience and the vistas from the deck are nothing short of breathtaking. Step aboard and let the sea breeze tousle your hair as you marvel at the vast expanse of the open sea. One of the highlights of the Government Ferry experience is the chance to visit the captain's corner, gaining insight into the workings of this maritime journey. The Government Ferry Service is renowned for its punctuality and reliability. Timings are strictly adhered to, ensuring a hassle-free and smooth voyage. For photography enthusiasts, the 4:30 PM ferry from Havelock is a must-try. As the sun descends, the sky transforms into a canvas of colors, setting the stage for breathtaking sunset shots. Capture the beauty of the Andaman Islands as the day gently fades into twilight. Booking Government Ferry tickets can be a bit tricky due to high demand and limited availability. Tickets are typically released just three days prior to departure or even on the day of sailing. For a hassle-free experience, we recommend booking Government Ferry tickets only when combined with our Day Tours, Activities, or Packages. Please note that we cannot book Government Ferry tickets for foreign or non-Indian citizens. To secure tickets for the Government Ferry, you'll need to be physically present and hold a Restricted Area Permit. For our international guests, we recommend opting for a cruise experience to make the most of your journey through the Andaman Islands. Join us on a voyage that transcends time, and experience the legacy of the Government Ferry Service. Embrace the sea, capture the moments, and let the Andaman Islands enchant you.
