With an ocean adventure site of coral reefs and translucent blue water, the island presents a memorable ocean experience to tourists who want to venture outside of the mainstream tourist tracks.

The charter is a day-long adventure program being run by Andaman Yacht Rentals that gives its guests a high-quality marine adventure on a professionally built offshore yacht.

The whole trip is conducted on the MV Brindle Bass, a powerful air-conditioned game fishing vessel, which is offshore performance, safety and comfort oriented.

Cinque Island: A Hidden Paradise in the Andaman

The Island of Cinque is among the most exotic and isolated Andaman archipelago islands. The island is subdivided into North Cinque Island and South Cinque Island that are linked together through a beautiful natural sandbar. It is only revealed during the low tide, and thus it forms a distinct landscape where the sandbar is enclosed by the turquoise waters on both sides. The landscape is attractive and is a rare island formation that is not very common in most regions of the globe. The seas around Cinque Island are incredibly transparent and smooth, and the island has become known due to its rich marine life. Bright coral reefs grow in the waters surrounding the island and sustain a variety of tropical marine organisms. 

In its natural habitat, snorkelers are frequently able to see colored reef fish, coral reefs and any other interesting underwater species. The coral reefs in the island are healthy and quite untouched, due to the island being located in a sheltered marine area. Cinque Island has not been greatly affected by the high tourism because of its remote nature and inaccessibility. This seclusion has contributed to the maintenance of the natural environment on the island, and the visitors can get the best experience of the Andaman Islands in their most unadulterated state. Its surrounding waters are generally of good underwater visibility of up to 25-30 meters, and therefore it is considered the best snorkeling destination in the Andaman Sea. 

What Makes Cinque Island Special

  • Untouched tropical island environment
  • Clear turquoise waters with high underwater visibility
  • Rich coral reef ecosystems\
  • Natural sandbar connecting two islands
  • Ideal conditions for snorkelling and marine photography
  • Scenic white sand beaches
