About

Ross & North Bay Islands Overview

Ross Island.

Located just 2 km east of Port Blair is Ross Island. Also known as Netaji Subhash Bose Island. An Island which was once the administrative headquarters of the British, but today is only an uninhabited island. Following an earthquake that hit Ross Island in the year 1941, the British left the island and shifted their settlement to Port Blair.

At first sight of the island, it is tough to believe that this abandoned place was once the seat of British power and housed everything from a bazaar, a church, stores, bakery, a water treatment plant, tennis court, printing press, secretariat, hospital, cemetery and other vital institutions. 
Today, everything has disappeared except a few buildings, which housed some of these landmarks. The Indian Navy has managed to rebuild some old buildings, such as the local stores and the bakery, to provide the visitors with a feel of the bygone era. Souvenirs can also be purchased from these shops.

North Bay Island

Competes with some of the most beautiful islands all over the world when it comes to attracting tourists. Activities like scuba diving, snorkeling, sea walking, and glass boat rides are what allures tourists the most. You will find more things to do here than at Neil Island or Havelock.

Things to Do in North Bay Island 

There are a plethora of snorkeling and scuba diving operators at the island, verified by the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (PADI).

You must choose the activities depending on the weather. If the sky is cloudy, the visibility will be low, and you won't be able to get the best out of the activities you choose. The guides and instructors are professional and friendly; there is no compromise on quality.
