📝 Description
North Passage Island is a truly untouched destination that offers one of the most raw and unfiltered natural experiences in the Andaman Islands. It's particularly famous for Merk Bay Beach, a pristine stretch of white sand known for its coral gardens and crystal-clear waters. The surrounding coral reef ecosystem is vibrant and teeming with marine life, making it a heaven for snorkelers and underwater photographers.
The island has no human settlement, shops, or commercial infrastructure, preserving its pure, untouched charm. A visit here typically involves a boat ride from Long Island or Rangat, and due to its remote location, it's often part of special permits or guided eco-tours. The journey itself offers scenic views of the open sea, and occasional sightings of dolphins or flying fish.
North Passage Island is part of a marine sanctuary, so all activities are conducted in an eco-sensitive manner. Tourists are advised to carry essentials like water, snacks, and snorkeling gear, and to return before sunset, as there are no facilities for overnight stays.
