Laxmanpur Beach – II, Neil Island (Shaheed Dweep), Andaman & Nicobar Islands
During low tide (typically morning to early afternoon)
Natural rock formation, marine life, scenic tide pools
The Natural Coral Bridge in Neil Island is one of the island’s most intriguing and awe-inspiring attractions. Formed by centuries of oceanic erosion, this naturally sculpted rock formation connects two giant living coral outcrops, resembling a bridge, and stands as a symbol of nature’s raw and creative power.
Located at Laxmanpur Beach No. 2, this iconic structure is often referred to by locals as the “Howrah Bridge”, not because of its size, but as a homage to the famous bridge in Kolkata. The walk to the site, through rocky tidal pools and exposed coral beds, adds to the adventure and offers a close encounter with the island’s rich marine biodiversity.
A Geological Wonder
This bridge was naturally formed by millions of years of wave and wind erosion, resulting in an arch-shaped coral and rock structure that remains partially submerged during high tide. It’s a must-see for those interested in geology and natural formations.
Tide Pools Full of Marine Life
On the way to the bridge, especially during low tide, you’ll walk across shallow tidal pools teeming with:
