Amazing hostel! Beds are clean, AC works well, and the common area has a great vibe. Definitely coming back!

Experience the thrill of watersports in Havelock Island (Swaraj Dweep), where crystal-clear waters and vibrant marine life await. Dive into exciting adventures like snorkelling, scuba diving and jet skiing suitable for both swimmers and non-swimmers.
Day kayaking is not physically demanding since the speed of paddling is slow. Simple movements of the arms and balance are enough to have fun during the activity. Guides also change the speed depending on the comfort of the participants.
Yes, the day kayaking is aimed at beginners who have no previous experience. Before the session starts, guides give a brief demonstration and safety measures. The majority of the people who have never taken part in paddling are comfortable after just a few minutes of paddling.
Day kayaking is an excellent adventure that can be done by individual tourists who prefer nature-based adventures. The group sessions would enable individual participants to kayak with others under the guide supervision. It is also a tranquil means of sightseeing along the coastline on its own.
Although it is not a sure thing, small fish, mangrove-neighing birds, or marine animals will be occasionally seen by the kayakers. The silent passage of kayaks will enhance the likelihood of the natural encounter. Sightings are mainly time and place based and subject to nature.
During the activity, there are guides who pay close attention to the weather and sea conditions. In case of the conditions becoming inappropriate, the session is cut short or terminated. The priority is always given to safety rather than to completing the route.
Day kayaking does not require skills in swimming. Life jackets will be compulsory and will keep the participants afloat. The kayaking trails are also decided near the shore, which provides additional safety.
Kayaks have maximum weight capacity in order to balance and be safe. Such limits differ with the type of kayak being operated by an operator. Before booking, it is good to verify this fact at the activity counter.
Dry storage or suggestions of carrying a few valuables are offered by most operators. It is possible to use waterproof bags where small items are concerned. One should not bring electronics unless it is well secured.
Availability is determined by the weather and number of bookings per day. Slots can be occupied reserving fast, especially in the busy tourist periods. It is better to book in advance not to be disappointed.
Day kayaking is considered an eco-friendly activity when conducted responsibly. Kayaks do not use fuel and produce minimal noise. Operators follow designated routes to reduce impact on mangroves and marine life.
