Avis Island is a beautiful and quiet island located near Mayabunder town in North Andaman. It is one of the most peaceful and untouched places in the Andaman Islands. The island is famous for its soft white sand, crystal-clear blue water, and coconut trees all around. Since there are no hotels, shops, or crowds, the island has kept its natural beauty.
Speciality of Avis Island
What makes Avis Island special is its white sandy beach and peaceful nature. It is not crowded, so you can enjoy complete silence and privacy. The clear water, lush green trees, and soft sand make it look like a postcard. It’s a great place for eco-tourism, couple getaways, solo travel, and photography. The calm sea and the natural setting help you relax your mind and feel refreshed. There are no buildings or food stalls, which keeps the island clean and untouched.
Avis Island is just a 20-minute boat ride from Mayabunder Jetty. You can hire a local boat from the jetty to reach the island. In some cases, you might need a short permission from local authorities since it’s a non-commercial island. If you are coming from Port Blair, first travel to Mayabunder by road or ferry, then take a boat from the Mayabunder Jetty. The boat ride itself is very beautiful, offering views of the sea and surrounding greenery.
The best time to visit Avis Island is from November to April. During this season, the weather is clear and sunny, and the sea is calm. This makes the boat ride from Mayabunder safe and enjoyable, and the views are stunning. The water looks blue and clean, and the beach is dry and perfect for relaxing. It’s best to avoid visiting in the monsoon season (June to September), as rough seas can make travel difficult.
