Tourism in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands has increased a lot in recent years, with more travelers visiting from across India. New initiatives like birdwatching and astro-tourism are being promoted and the focus is shifting towards eco-tourism and experience-based travel, including island hopping and premium stays. The Veer Savarkar International Airport has improved flight connectivity, making it easier and more convenient to reach the islands.
The Andaman Archipelago has over 570 islands out of which only 36 are inhabited. Andaman Island tourism offers varied kinds of experiences for travelers on a visit to the islands. Please note that tourism is open only in the Andaman Islands and is closed for the Nicobar Islands. Nicobar Island entirely falls under the tribal restricted area and travelers are to visit Nicobar without valid and permissible reasons. Even the Andaman Islanders cannot go to the Nicobar Islands without government orders. The government employees are posted in Nicobar which is the only way they can see Nicobar in their lifetime.
