Ferry Services In Andaman

Port Blair, Havelock and Neil Island are beautiful, strikingly different island-towns separated by water and not connected by roads. This makes ferry services the only way to traverse amongst these. This distance can be covered by the private ferry or the government ferry. 

We suggest that you complete the Port Blair- Havelock- Neil Island- Port Blair circuit to make the best out of your trip! Andaman Ferry services are fast, comfortable and economical. No matter which private ferry service provider, Go2Andaman is THE platform you need for all your ferry tie-ups. 

Types of Ferry Services in Andaman and Nicobar Islands

  1. Private Ferry Services 
  2. Government Ferry Services

Andaman Private Ferry Services

Private ferries run on time, are clean and well organized with ferry staff to assist you at all points. Most importantly, getting booking availability with private ferries is a lot easier than getting bookings for government ferries. They cost a little more but considering aforementioned points, they are worth the price. On our booking page, you can compare fares & timings for all ferries and book tickets for any of the ferries. We’re a one- stop shop for all your ferry needs.

Andaman Government Ferry Services

Government ferries in Andaman are operated by the Directorate of Shipping Services (DSS). The department primarily operates for the convenience of local islanders. Since this is the only way of transportation for the islanders, tickets are highly subsidized for them. Residents also have a decent local knowledge which makes using government ferries convenient for them. 

Though slightly cheaper in comparison to the private ferries, government Ferry booking is not available on our platform as we think that from a tourist’s point of view, it’s not the most feasible way. However they’re available everyday and depart from Phoenix Bay Jetty.

Is Private ferry in Andamans better than Government ferry in Andamans?

As mentioned earlier, we as localities feel that for a more relaxed and hassle-free holiday experience, it’s advisable to opt for private ferries which primarily work for the travellers.The government ones are designed mainly for local transportation and may not be the ideal choice for tourists. Go2Andaman does not facilitate bookings for government ferry tickets. If you plan to use them, tickets can be purchased at the offline counters or at their office. Keep in mind that ticket queues tend to form early in the morning, and if you find yourself at the back of the line, there’s a chance that seats may be occupied by the time your turn arrives. Moreover, having only limited seats, the tickets on government ferries are booked months in advance, sometimes the waiting is 4-6 months.
