Route overview

Havelock Island to Neil Island ferry services

Havelock Island to Neil Island ferry booking starts with the route and travel date. Compare the available departure, arrival and fare together, then check the class and passenger details before payment.

The Havelock to Neil Island ferry connects Swaraj Dweep with Shaheed Dweep across an approximate sea distance of 18 nautical miles, or about 33 kilometres. There is no road or bridge connection, so passenger ferry travel is the practical link between the two islands.

Private and government-operated vessels have served this route. Private services usually provide reserved classes and online inventory, while government schedules and DSS/STARS booking releases are managed separately. The actual operator, vessel and availability depend on the selected date and operating conditions.

Jetties and boarding

Havelock departure and Neil Island arrival jetties

Departure from Havelock

Ferries depart from Havelock’s main passenger jetty near Govind Nagar. Havelock is also known as Swaraj Dweep.

Arrival at Neil Island

Services generally arrive at Neil Kendra jetty. Neil Island may appear as Shaheed Dweep on the ticket or terminal notice.

Reporting and identification

Arrive one hour before departure with your ticket and valid photo ID in digital or printed form.

Luggage handling

Plan your hotel checkout and jetty transfer around the ferry reporting time. Allow time for disembarkation and baggage collection after arrival.

Need a hotel or jetty transfer? Contact AWT to arrange your pickup and drop-off separately from the ferry ticket.

Booking and onboard experience

Havelock to Neil Island ferry booking: plan the transfer

1

Compare the price for the same passenger group

When comparing the Havelock to Neil Island ferry price, keep the travel date and passenger categories the same. Check the selected class and complete payable amount before deciding. For a family or group, review the returned seats together; a displayed starting fare does not establish that everyone can travel in the same class or sit together.

2

Plan the first afternoon on Neil Island

A ferry from Havelock to Neil Island is one part of the hotel-to-hotel transfer. Keep your Neil arrival pickup aligned with the selected sailing and leave time for luggage collection and check-in before a fixed activity. This makes the Havelock Island to Neil Island ferry connection easier to manage if the actual arrival changes.

3

Confirm the direction before payment

For Havelock to Neil ferry booking, select Havelock as the departure and Neil Island as the arrival. A Neil-to-Havelock result is the opposite journey and cannot be used for this transfer. Check the direction again on the booking review, particularly when reserving several island sectors in one session.

4

Search the travel date

Choose Havelock as the departure point and Neil Island as the arrival point, or use the same universal form for any other supported route. Nothing is preselected or locked.

5

Compare timing and class

Review operator, departure and arrival time, duration, travel class, returned seats and displayed fare before choosing the sailing.

6

Review the final amount

Enter passenger details accurately, select a supported seat where available and check all applicable fare components before secure payment.

7

Receive and manage the ticket

After payment verification and operator confirmation, the PNR and ticket are stored in My AWT and sent to the registered email. Cancellation can be started from My AWT with the charge and estimated refund shown first.

8

Understand onboard variation

Air-conditioning, open-deck access, refreshments, entertainment, seating layout and medical support vary by vessel and class. Review the chosen operator’s class information.

9

Use local disruption support

If an operator changes or cancels a sailing, AWT can help review another available ferry across connected providers. Any alternative depends on live seats, fare difference and operator rules.

45–90 minCommon private-ferry planning range
No road linkThis island transfer is completed by sea
  • Book early for peak dates because convenient morning sailings and preferred classes can sell out.
  • Keep enough time after breakfast or a Havelock activity to return to the hotel, collect luggage and reach the jetty before reporting closes.
  • Check passenger names, date, route, operator, terminal, reporting time and baggage instruction as soon as the ticket is issued.
  • Leave the first Neil Island activity flexible because weather, harbour movement and operational decisions can affect arrival.
  • Carry water and essential personal items while following the operator’s baggage and restricted-item rules.
  • Private ferries are usually easier to compare online; government tickets use the separate DSS/STARS process or notified counters, with availability subject to announced releases and passenger category.
