Beach Activities
The first thought that comes to mind when somebody mentions an island vacation is beaches. And Neil Island has plenty of beaches with activities for everybody, no matter what your preferences. If all you want to do on a day at the beach is work on your tan with a good book and your favourite drink to keep you company, you can do that. If you would rather engage in activities that get your adrenaline buzzing, there are plenty of options for you like snorkelling, scuba diving, and glass-bottom boat rides, among others. Bharatpur Beach is the premier watersports hub on Neil Island, while Laksmanpur Beach is an idyllic location to indulge in mesmerising sunsets. Finally, Sitapur Beach is the perfect destination to enjoy a refreshing and captivating sunrise on the Bay of Bengal.
Witness A Natural Rock Formation
Affectionately referred to as Howrah Bridge by the locals, this is arguably the most famous attraction on the island. The rock formation is also a mainstay of lists naming the best places to visit in Neil Island. It is a massive rock formed by dead corals, with an opening caused by thousands of years worth of erosion by wind and water. The resulting gap in the bottom has given the rock the appearance of a bridge. The bridge and the surrounding biodiversity ensure that this is a great spot to furnish your photography skills. We request you not to take any of the coral homes as a keepsake, there are numerous other places on the island where visitors can get souvenirs.
