Elephant Beach, Havelock Islands...

During our stay at the resort, Barefoot Scuba had organized a snorkeling trip for us in the aqua waters near the Elephant Beach. What we saw and experienced was something out of the world.
Never, never seen blue like that before, either in the water or the sky.

Not having carried my camera during that trip, we decided to do some exploring on our own. From the Havelock port there are many privately operated motorboats & speed boats to the Elephant Beach.

Gorgeous shades of blue and loved the weather beaten anchor...

During the Tsunami that hit Andamans, loads of trees got uprooted...

These photographs don't do justice to the beauty that we were engulfed in....

Do visit Andamans at least once in your life. It's worth it!

Beach No.7, Havelock Islands...

Apart from Barefoot at Havelock, the eco-friendly resort where we stayed, the beach itself is pristine and well maintained.

Sitting there watching the play of light on the sky and in the water was a meditative experience. Sharing some frames...
