Ross Island Sightseeing Detail

Ross Island—now called Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Island—really stands out among the places to see in Andaman. It’s just a quick boat ride from Port Blair, but it feels like you’re stepping into another world. The old British ruins are everywhere, tucked among big trees and wild greenery. You wander past crumbling churches and abandoned offices, and you can almost picture what life was like back when this place ran as the colonial headquarters.

Nature’s taken its time reclaiming everything. Roots wrap around old stone walls, deer wander by without a care, and sunlight filters through thick branches above quiet walking trails. It’s the kind of spot that makes you want to slow down and just take it all in—or snap a hundred photos. There’s a lighthouse where you can catch some great views, plus that peaceful coastline that seems to go on forever.

NewWay Andaman Tours and Travels always puts Ross Island on their list, and it’s easy to see why. You get a bit of history, a lot of nature, and a real sense of calm, all wrapped up in one place. If you want to dig into Andaman’s past without the crowds and noise, this is the spot.
