Govt. Ferry

These old-school ferries are the OG way to hop between Port Blair, Havelock (aka Swaraj Dweep), Neil Island (Shaheed Dweep), and a bunch of other random gorgeous dots in the ocean. Locals swear by them, and tourists—especially the ones who aren’t made of money—love ’em too. At Expanse Andamans, we’ve got your back when it comes to snagging those tickets before they disappear faster than WiFi on the open sea. Look, if you’re expecting a five-star cruise, forget it. These ferries are all about keeping it real: cheap, straightforward, and way more “local adventure” than “Instagram luxury.” You get open decks for salty sea hair and killer views, plus closed cabins if you’re not about that sunburn life. Sure, they’re not fancy—but they’re absolutely safe and crazy reliable. Perfect if you’re watching your wallet or just want to feel like you’re actually traveling, not just being shuttled around in an air-conditioned bubble. Here’s the catch: those tickets? They vanish fast. Seriously, blink and you’ll miss ’em. That’s why our team at Expanse Andamans does the heavy lifting—checking timetables, booking seats, sorting out all the little details so you’re not sweating it at the last minute. Bottom line: if you want to see the Andamans the way locals do (and not break the bank), hop on a Government Ferry. We’ll handle the hassle, you just focus on the adventure.
