Havelock Island picnic is a luxury sea trip that starts in Port Blair and proceeds across the open waters of the Andaman Sea. As an exclusive field trip, it is meant to be a blend of scenic sailing, exclusive access to beaches, and onboard comfort aboard your own personal yacht, MV Brindle Bass.
Leaving Port Blair, visitors will arrive in the privacy of a boat in the crystal-clear waters to pre-selected picnic spots around Havelock Island. The experience integrates travel, leisure and exploration into a single uninterrupted experience and so is one of the most exclusive means of exploring the Andaman Islands.
This experience will be in the form of a small yacht adventure, unlike regular ferry transfer or lazy tours. The voyage itself is a treat, with unrestrained views of the ocean, comfort and flexibility.
