Best known for its unparalleled biodiversity and unexplored span of dense tropical forests and greenery complemented by white sand beaches and rich coral reefs, Neil is one of the most serene islands in the Andamans, ideal for a relaxing vacation, far from the city noises and into the wonderful world of the tropical islands!
Neil Island is popularly known as the vegetable bowl of Andamans due to abundant yield and supplies vegetables to the whole of Andaman. Its pristine beaches are named after the Hindu epic Ramayana and are arguably the best in the region.
With almost no internet connectivity, Neil, renamed in 2018 as Shaheed Dweep, is the perfect location for a digital detox and
a true experience of nature. It is connected to both Port Blair (1.5 hours) and Havelock (45 minutes) by private ferries and government ferries.
