Kayaking Through Mangroves in Mayabunder & Havelock – A Must-Do Experience in Andaman
Looking for a unique way to experience the raw, untouched side of Andaman? Forget beaches for a moment and imagine gliding through a tunnel of lush mangroves, with nothing but the sound of birds, water, and your paddle.
Kayaking in Andaman, especially through the mangrove forests of Mayabunder and Havelock, offers just that — a peaceful, adventurous, and photo-worthy escape far from the tourist crowds.
Why Choose Mayabunder & Havelock for Mangrove Kayaking?
While water sports like scuba diving and snorkeling are popular, mangrove kayaking remains one of the most underrated and enriching activities in Andaman. It allows you to get up close with the island’s rich ecosystem, guided only by nature and your rhythm.
✅ Mayabunder
- Located in North Andaman, Mayabunder is home to dense, untouched mangrove forests.
- Ideal for those looking to escape the mainstream.
- Kayaking here feels like entering a natural cathedral made of trees and water.
✅ Havelock Island (Swaraj Dweep)
- Easier to access and ideal for honeymooners or short-stay travelers.
- Offers sunset kayaking and bioluminescent night kayaking during the right season.

Bioluminescence Kayaking in Havelock – A Magical Nighttime Experience
