Island Hopping through Ritchie's Archipelago

 A Full-Day Island-Hopping Adventure with Snorkeling, Scenic Beauty & Sunset Views. Your journey begins at the picturesque Govind Nagar Beach, where you will board our high-speed boat to embark on an unforgettable voyage across the stunning Ritchie’s Archipelago.

Our first destination is the renowned dive site Tribe Gate, a vibrant underwater paradise. Here, you’ll indulge in a 20 to 30-minute guided snorkeling session, exploring coral gardens teeming with colorful marine life. This immersive experience offers the perfect introduction to the untouched beauty that lies beneath the surface of the Andaman Sea.

Following this, we continue to the tranquil shores of John Lawrence Island, home to our second snorkeling site—Juvis.

After the snorkeling session, we gently cruise into a serene channel that winds through the heart of the archipelago. The first island you’ll see is the beautiful Peel Island, followed by a continuous stretch of the eastern flank of John Lawrence Island, unfolding right before your eyes. As we move deeper into the channel, the scenery transforms with the appearance of lush mangrove ecosystems.

Mangroves, often referred to as the guardians of the coast, are a crucial part of this region’s ecological balance. These salt-tolerant trees thrive in intertidal zones, acting as nurseries for juvenile fish, stabilizing the shoreline, and serving as a haven for a wide variety of bird species and marine organisms. Their dense roots form a fascinating maze above and below the water, offering a glimpse into nature’s resilience and ingenuity.

Continuing onward, we sail past the tranquil John Lawrence Island, and make our way toward the enchanting Nicholson Island. Although we do not make landfall here, we anchor close to its serene surroundings where guests are treated to a sumptuous onboard lunch. Our crew will serve a freshly prepared meal tailored to your preferences, allowing you to dine while surrounded by panoramic island views and the gentle sway of the ocean.

As the afternoon fades into evening, we approach the iconic Lighthouse Point, located in the heart of the sea. Here, in the middle of open waters, you’ll witness one of the most breathtaking moments of the day—a golden Andaman sunset that paints the sky in hues of orange, pink, and gold. It’s the perfect ending to a day filled with adventure, discovery, and serenity.

After sunset, we begin our return cruise, carrying with us the memories of a day well spent amidst the natural wonders of Ritchie’s Archipelago.
