Coral reefs, calm waters, scenic beauty, access to Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park
Tucked away in a peaceful corner of South Andaman, Wandoor Beach is a hidden gem offering the perfect blend of tranquility, natural beauty, and coastal charm. Known for its gentle waves, white sandy shores, and a picturesque shoreline dotted with fallen tree trunks, Wandoor is a favorite among those looking to escape the crowds and embrace serenity.
More than just a beach, Wandoor serves as the gateway to the Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park, which encompasses a rich collection of coral reefs, mangroves, and over 15 small islands including Jolly Buoy and Red Skin Island.
Calm & Scenic Beachfront
The beach itself is clean, scenic, and perfect for long walks, family picnics, or simply relaxing under the shade of palm trees. The turquoise waters are generally calm, making it a safe spot for children to play near the shore.
Gateway to Marine Adventures
Wandoor Jetty is the starting point for boat trips to the famous Jolly Buoy and Red Skin Islands, known for their vibrant coral reefs, snorkeling, and glass-bottom boat rides. This makes Wandoor an essential stop for travelers heading to these eco-protected destinations.
Natural Beauty & Photography
Fallen tree trunks scattered along the beach, stunning seascapes, and the backdrop of distant islands make Wandoor a paradise for landscape photographers. The sunsets here are soft, colorful, and truly soul-soothing.
