Havelock Island (Swaraj Dweep)
Havelock Island, officially Swaraj Dweep, holds the beaches people actually came for. The island is small and the distances are deceptive: Radhanagar is 12 km from the jetty, Kalapathar 11 km the other way, and there is no meaningful public transport. These guides carry the current cab fares, timings and what facilities actually exist on each beach.
