Away from the bustling crowds of Port Blair, Wandoor Beach offers a serene escape for those seeking solitude. Despite bearing the scars of the devastating Tsunami, evidenced by fallen trunks along its shoreline, Wandoor Beach retains its tranquil charm. The coastline is adorned with tall trees, with pockets of mangroves dotting the landscape. Watching the sunset against the backdrop of distant horizons, amidst the silhouettes of mangroves and under the play of twilight hues reflecting on the rolling waves, is a captivating sight.
The scenic 30-kilometer journey from Port Blair to Wandoor is a feast for the eyes. The route meanders through verdant coconut groves and mangrove forests. Along the way, one encounters agricultural research farms operated by ICAR and CARI near Sippighat, offering a glimpse of the submerged landmasses left in the wake of the Tsunami.
Situated approximately 1 kilometer beyond the Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park, which serves as the embarkation point for Jolly Buoy Island, Wandoor Beach presents an idyllic setting to soak in the beauty of the ocean and nearby islands from the shore.
With its ample stretch of sand, punctuated by a majestic uprooted tree at its center, Wandoor Beach provides the perfect backdrop for a tranquil retreat away from the crowds.
