ABOUT HAVELOCK

As far as the islands go, Havelock is one of the more "developed" destinations: it recently got phone lines and electricity, it has a handful of vehicles plying its roads (or rather, road, as there is only one – well, one and a half – real road on the island), and as per now-verified rumor, it even has someone who sells ice-cream!!! And of course, it has great white sand beaches, diving, snorkeling, fishing and a lot more.
 
The island is roughly oval-shaped, with the main jetty (where the ferry arrives) at the northern end. This is village number 1 (all locations in Havelock are numbered). Running down the north-eastern side of the island are Beaches 2, 3 and 5. We don't know what happened to 4, btw - if someone discovers it, do let us know. On the south-western side of the island is beach 7, with village 6 being somewhere in the middle of the island. The rest, making up a majority of the island's area, consists of thick forest cover.

Most resorts and activities are located in the north-east stretch (1-5) or along beach 7.

You can walk from beach 1 to beach 5 in less than an hour. To get to beach 7, which is some distance away, you can choose from: the hourly bus, a rickshaw, a taxi or rent your own moped or scooty (a gearless scooter).

underwater photo andamansThe main sources of livelihood in Havelock are farming and fishing. Until recently, timber-logging was a popular occupation as well; however, a recent Supreme Court ruling has put an end to all logging activities. This has resulted in not only several local timber operations shutting down, but has also caused the island's few elephants to become jobless.

This island is where we have tied our own hammock and set up our first base.
