Andaman Honeymoon Packages: Romantic Resorts, Activities, and Budget Guide
The Andaman & Nicobar Islands have long been favorites for couples who want an isolated escape where turquoise water, powdered beaches, and silent nights can drown out city life. This guide provides some on-the-ground travel experience, some logistics of immediate practical application, and some clear cost guidance so that couples can plan a honeymoon that marries romance and adventure with a budget in reality.
Why the Andamans work for a honeymoon?
The islands combine a rare assortment: from beach resorts that can be reached fairly easily to pristine, low-crowd areas for couples; water activities that provide safe feelings for amateurs in diving and snorkeling; and small, community-run homestays that add a true local flavor. For many couples, the pace is another draw: slow, lazy, easy mornings; lots of beach strolls; and evenings filled with watching unblemished horizons. These qualities make the Andamans a choice par excellence for honeymoons, with an emphasis on nourishment and rejuvenation.

Times to travel (a practical insight based on experience)
For good weather, a clear sea, and plenty of available activities, plan for travel between October and May. This is when the seas will be most stable for boat transfers and water sports, while the winter months (November–February) are in especially high demand due to mild temperatures and little rain. The monsoon months (July–September) will, however, present rough seas, with many island transfers and other activities disabled.
The standard honeymoon itinerary (5 to 7 days)
It is 5 to 7 days, a common yet practical itinerary, allowing for two islands to be included along with Port Blair, without the schedule becoming taxing with ferrying or flight interspersed.
The proposed flow:
Day 1: Arrive in Port Blair — see Cellular Jail and sunset at Corbyn’s Cove.
Day 2-3: Transfer to Havelock (Swaraj Dweep) –Radhanagar beach, sunset walks, considering an optional romantic beach dinner.
Day 4: Water activities (snorkeling at Elephant Beach, intro-dive or taking a private boat trip).
Day 5-6: Optional half-day trip to Neil Island (Shaheed Dweep) for its serene beaches, or remain in Havelock for diving and sunrise-fishing boat trips.
Final day: Travel back to Port Blair and depart.
One avoids excessive inter-island travel fatigue while balancing adventure with relaxation.
Where to stay: from romantic resorts to homestays (experience-based)
Options for couples will stretch from boutique eco-lodges to full-service resorts. A repeat contender for honeymoon couples is Havelock and Neil islands, since they combine a scenic facade of beaches with a plethora of lodging options, ranging from simple beach cottages to private villas and small luxurious properties with spa and dining options. The couple can check with review sites or booking engines for recommendations about Riads, Hotels, and eco-resorts, including SeaShell, Barefoot, Silver Sand, and a few boutique resorts which are considered highly among couples for isolation, seaviews, and easy access to beaches. Those wishing to experience the local flavor can go for highly vetted homestays run by island families offering local meals and guided walks.

When selecting accommodation, be sure to consider:
Proximity to the popular beach for moonlight walks;
beachfront or garden cottage with outdoor privacy;
Confirm in writing breakfast/dinner options (which will come in handy during the islands with limited hours for dining).
Activities that make a honeymoon unique (authoritative detail)
Water-based experiences define many Andaman honeymoons. Standard, well-run options include:
Snorkeling and intro diving: Elephant Beach (Havelock) and the easy-to-reach, clear reefs nearby Havelock offer snorkel sites for couples to view colorful reef fish and corals on guided trips. Operators often providea briefing and basic gear for beginners.
Private boat charters: Half-day and full-day charters mean couples are able to find secret coves and picnic, snorkel, and watch the sunset.
Kayaking and paddle-boarding: Calm backwaters and shallow bays suggest gently paddling together.
Island walks and stargazing: Great places for evening stargazing and beach dinners underneath near-dark skies. Neil Island and the quieter stretches of Havelock.
The Times of India
Engage licensed operators, confirm safety standards & boat load capacities, and avoid activities during forecasts of rough seas.
Budget guide: realistic numbers.
Budgeting for a 5-6 day honeymoon varies with style:
Shoestring/value(homestay, shared ferries, basic activities): approx ₹15,000-30,000 per person(excluding flights)-depending on season and inclusions.
Comfort/mid-range(3-star hotels, paid transfers, several paid activities): approx ₹30,000-60,000 per person.
Luxury: (private transfers, boutique resorts, private boat charters, spa and dining): ₹60,000 or more per person.
Tour operators have a number of packaged 5-night packages that fall into each of these price ranges. Prices typically rise quickly during the high season and long weekends. Always check what’s included(Ferry, transfers, meals, activities) so as to avoid any hidden costs.

Notes on travel and permits — practical and useful
For normal touristic activities in the Andamans, Indian nationals usually do not require special permits; nonetheless, access to protected tribal areas or restricted zones is strictly controlled, and prior permission is granted. International visitors will need to check for visas and local arrival requirements. Port Blair is the entry point, where Immigration Authorities or Port authorities can guide about any arrival requirements. Book inter-island transfers well ahead of time-fast ferries can sell out during peak months.
Loading up safety, sustainability, and packing tips (experience-led)
Use reef-safe sunscreen and refrain from touching corals.
Recognize the local customs; in many islands, locals view tourism as much of a livelihood.
Pack lightweight layers and dry jackets for sudden showers.
Again, verify ferry cancellation policies and resort accommodations during the entire monsoon window.

A honeymoon destination, as well as a destination where slow, deliberate slowing down means just that, all appeal to couples who choose fewer destinations and spend more time in each place. Get your travel plan and book in good time with the right season, vetted operators, and hotel-accommodation-mood-in-law (intimate homestay versus canapé-service resort), and these islands will really give you privacy and adventure together as well as memories framed by white sand and clear water.
