Guitar Island: A Hidden Paradise in the Andaman Islands

Looking for an offbeat escape in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands?
Guitar Island, shaped like a guitar, is one of the most beautiful and least explored gems in the archipelago. Located just off Long Island, this stunning destination is perfect for those seeking solitude, natural beauty, and adventure.

If you are planning your trip with My Tour Guru, make sure you include this mesmerizing spot in your Andaman tour package or Andaman budget package.

Why Visit Guitar Island?

Once a protected rainforest and coral-bearing area, Guitar Island is now open for day trips, thanks to the Andaman Tourism Department. Its untouched white-sand beaches, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and vibrant marine life offer an unforgettable experience for every traveler — be it honeymooners, nature lovers, adventure seekers, or solo travelers.

What makes Guitar Island truly unique is its distinctive shape, visible clearly from a seaplane ride. Being uninhabited, it remains pristine and clean, offering a peaceful environment far from the crowds.

Best Time to Visit Guitar Island

Guitar Island is a year-round destination, but the best time to visit is between October and February when the skies are clear, and the seawater is perfect for adventure activities like kayaking, snorkeling, and swimming.
March to May sees warmer temperatures, ideal for sunbathing but slightly uncomfortable during midday.
The monsoon season (June to September) transforms the island into a romantic haven, perfect for couples who love the rain-soaked beauty and tranquil vibes.

Whether you are booking an Andaman tour package or an Andaman budget package, My Tour Guru recommends securing your travel and accommodation in advance, especially during peak seasons.
