About Barren Island In Andaman

Barren Island is located in Andaman and is home to the only active volcano in South Asia. As the name suggests, the island is devoid of human life and is inhabited only by rats, goats, flying foxes, and bats. The Island is around 139 kilometers from Port Blair, Andaman. The Island is around three kilometers wide and has two kilometers wide caldera.

History of Volcano Eruptions

The first volcano eruption as per historical record was in the year 1787. Again in the year 1991 and 1994, the volcano erupted and smoke continued for months. Since then, Barren Island has seen many eruptions once or twice almost every year. The latest eruption was recorded in the year 2018.

About Barren Island?

If one wants to reach the Island, permission from the Forest Department of Andaman must be taken. The Island can only be explored by ferries and seaplanes. No one is allowed even near to the shore of Barren Island. From Havelock Island, it takes about 4 to 5 hours to reach Barren Island. One gets to see the captivating view of the Island and the active volcano from the ferry. One can also book a private seaplane and get an aerial view of the active volcano. Barren Island is a famous place for scuba diving, snorkeling, and fishing. Many experienced divers come to the island to explore the untouched and pristine underwater world, after taking permission from the Forest Department. For a clearer vision of the volcano, it is suggested to visit Barren Island from November to February.

Other Famous Volcanos in Andaman and Nicobar

Another volcanic island in Andaman and Nicobar is Narcondam Island, which is classified as a dormant volcano by the Geological Survey of India. Narcondam Island is under UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Another island famous for a volcanic eruption is Baratang Island for mud volcanoes.

    Chirag's 7 days trip to Andaman

    We had a family vacation at the start of the month; skeptically we booked Andamans fearing about the monsoons, but Travel Triangle and the perfectly chosen partner Pearl Andaman assured me that we will not face any issues weather wise and it will be a great experience to travel during the first week
    of June. Trusting them we planned our tour, and it was a great experience - starting from Rohan at TT and Shivani from Pearl Andaman - they had been very courteous, helpful and patient. They meticulously planned our travel, taking care of all our needs, booking right hotels and right rooms to accommodate my family. The cab and its drivers were amazing as well - knowledgeable about the place and talked about its history - so were the tour coordinators of both Swaraj and Saheed Dweep. The water activities they suggested and where to do those saved a lot of money as well. I almost missed to mention the ferry services - they booked the best in business for us. :) Big thumps for both TT team and Pearl Andaman team - Thank you so much for everything

    Aditi's 5 days trip to Andaman

    We had an incredible experience on our trip to the Andaman Islands, all thanks to our agent (Anita) who meticulously planned and coordinated everything. The first two days were quite hectic as we covered major tourist attractions, but it was well worth it. The following four days were gentle and rel
    axing, providing a perfect balance to our vacation. My mother absolutely loved the trip and even tried scuba diving and other water sports, which was a highlight for her. Although we encountered a few hiccups with the hotel cleanliness on Neil Island, these issues were promptly addressed after I spoke with the manager. Overall, the trip was seamless, with everything running on time and as planned. We are grateful for the agent’s efforts in ensuring we had a memorable experience. I highly recommend their services for anyone looking to explore the Andaman Islands.

    Alamshaazia's 9 days trip to Andaman

    The trip was organised well but initially we had to keep following up for our trip details, the local travel agent did not connect once we landed. But after that it was a smooth ride all through. There was some miscommunication later on our itinerary, all this was upsetting but it was sorted. Most o
    f the things we asked for during the trip was promptly resolved. Even for the cancelled elephanta trip we were informed that the refund of the boat tickets will be done soon. The hotel rooms had some issues like no handwash at both the hotels, damaged electric kettle at Havelock beach resort and in one room the geyser and the hair dryer was not working. But overall it was a well organised trip.

The hotel given to us at Neil (sandy ridge)was just average..the rooms were smelly n even the shower did not work and they had rusted taps which were jammed n hard to
    open n close...the hotel garden was not maintained. Good coordination by travel agent...all went as planned. good behaviour of drivers--one of the driver at havlock helped me by bringing me a Bday cake for my daughter.
