Neil Island

Neil, with its very relaxed vibe and long, deserted beaches is a place to chill out compare to the "bustle" of Havelock Island. Neil is quite small compared to Havelock and its widest part is about 5 km in length. Its beaches may not be as luxurious as Havelock’s, but they have ample character and are a perfect distance apart to explore by bicycle. There’s a lovely unhurried pace of life here; cycling through picturesque villages you’ll get many friendly hellos. The main bazaar has a mellow vibe and is a popular gathering spot in the early evening. In Neil Island you’re about 40km from Port Blair, a short ferry ride from Havelock and several universes away from life at home.
