Sea Walking in Andaman

Imagine this, walking on the ocean floor, surrounded by vivid corals, playful fishes, and the serene blue of the Bay of Bengal. That’s exactly what sea walking in Andaman offers — a one-of-a-kind underwater adventure that feels like stepping into another world.

If you’re planning an island getaway, this should be on your must-do list. And with My Tour Guru’s Andaman tour packages and Andaman budget packages, it’s now more accessible than ever.

What is Sea Walking?

Sea walking is exactly what it sounds like — a guided walk on the ocean bed, typically 7–10 meters underwater. You’ll wear a special helmet that allows you to breathe normally, see clearly, and stay dry from the neck up.

No swimming skills are required, and it’s considered one of the safest water sports in the Andaman Islands.

Here’s how it works:

You wear a helmet with a transparent visor connected to an oxygen tank above water.
The helmet feels heavy on land but weightless underwater.
You’re guided by professionals every step of the way.

It’s suitable for almost everyone — from 7 to 70 years old — and makes for an unforgettable underwater experience.

Why Try Sea Walking in Andaman?

The Andaman and Nicobar Islands, home to 572 islands and over 197 endemic marine species, offer an unmatched diving environment. Sea walking lets you:

Explore vibrant coral reefs up close.
Interact safely with marine life without harming the ecosystem.
Get professional underwater photos with fish swimming all around you.
Experience marine magic without needing to know how to swim!

Whether you’re an adventure seeker or just want to try something new, this activity fits right into your island itinerary.

Best Places for Sea Walking in Andaman

Currently, sea walking in Andaman is offered at two iconic locations:

1. Elephant Beach, Havelock Island (Swaraj Dweep)

A hotspot for water sports, Elephant Beach is surrounded by healthy coral reefs. Accessible by a catamaran (90 minutes from Port Blair) or government ferry (2–2.5 hours), this is the most popular sea walking destination.

2. North Bay Island

Just 43 km from Port Blair, North Bay offers equally stunning underwater scenes and vibrant marine biodiversity. Ferries and private boats are easily available.

Both locations offer a safe and scenic setup with experienced guides and high-quality equipment.

Sea Walking Costs

The average cost of sea walking in Andaman is around ₹4,000 per person for 30 minutes. Prices may vary slightly based on the operator or if you’re visiting during the off-season.

With My Tour Guru’s Andaman budget packages, you can enjoy bundled activities, accommodations, and transport — making the entire experience more cost-effective.

Safety Tips for Sea Walking

Even though sea walking is beginner-friendly, safety is key. Keep these tips in mind:

Do’s:

Follow your instructor at all times.
Carry extra clothes (you will get wet).
Declare any health issues (asthma, panic attacks, heart problems).

Don’ts:

Don’t touch or disturb marine animals.
Don’t litter — respect the marine ecosystem.
Don’t feed the fish or remove corals.

Feeling nervous? Try shallow walking first to get comfortable before heading 10 meters deep.
