Destination Details
Andaman has one of the breathtaking beauties of Mother Nature. One of the mysterious places to visit is the hidden mangrove bay. It is a mystery in itself that you must learn and experience once in the Andaman. Similar mangroves are not found in the Indian subcontinent. You can experience a vast swamp, mud volcano, dark caves, island beaches, island dams and quaint villages that will make you fall in love with Andaman. So if you're planning your next trip to the Andaman, visit the creek and crawl here for a laid-back experience.
Mangrove Creek, located on Baratang Island, in the middle of Andaman. Humidity will be over 70% since all sides are surrounded by ocean. Tropical climate prevails year round. You can enjoy pleasant summer days, the temperature can reach 30 degrees Celsius. However, you can enjoy the cool sea breeze all year round. Winters are cold and temperatures can drop as low as 16 degrees Celsius. The southwest monsoon and northeast monsoon bring significant rainfall from June to November.
The natural feature of this mangrove area is the natural flow within its brackish water, marshes and mangroves. They are 5 to 10 feet tall and 20 to 30 feet wide. That makes it possible for a small boat and a kayak to navigate the natural waterways. This natural height and width does not impede the boat's passage at high tide. This mangrove forest looks scarier with the uneven distribution of aquatic roots.
The Andaman mangrove creek safari will be memorable for anyone visiting this creek. Boating is the only option to explore this cove. If you're traveling from Port Blair, you'll enjoy a nearly 6 hour round-trip boat ride. You will arrive at the Middle Strait Pier. If you rent a private boat, you will go directly to the mangrove creek. However, they can stop at the Middle Strait pier to buy food and drinks. This is due to the fact; There are no food and shelter facilities in this mangrove forest. Boat safari is only available as a day trip. You should sign up for an organized trip that includes a safari in Mangrove Creek. Here you will have kayaks, traditional boats and group boats. Solo travelers and others who do not benefit from an organized trip can take a local boat ride from the Middle Strait jetty. There are many other mangrove forests on Bartang Island. You can also go play games if time permits. However, they are not as spacious as in Mangrove Creek.
