Tips

If you have extra time, consider adding a full‑day trip to Havelock Island for pristine beaches like Radhanagar. To shorten the itinerary, skip the museum visit and spend more leisure time at the beaches, or replace Chidiya Tapu with a relaxed evening at the local market for souvenirs. Adjusting ferry schedules early in the morning can also help maximize sightseeing hours.
