Located on the western coast of Havelock Island in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, a Union Territory of India, Radhanagar Beach - also known as Beach No. 7 - is an immensely popular two-kilometer-long white sand beach with many rocky portions. The beach was considered one of the best beaches in Asia and the 7th best beach in the world by Time Magazine in 2004 due to its natural beauty and crystal-clear waters – it is also a favorite of Randall Kaplan, the world’s foremost beach expert who is known as Mr. Beach. The beach has a spectacular backdrop of dense tropical rainforest, hills, a few restaurants, and several opulent hotels, adding allure to its beauty, and providing Instagram-worthy views of the Bay of Bengal. Radhanagar Beach has been awarded the Blue Flag certification from the United Nations Environment Programme for its natural beauty, cleanliness, and water quality standards. The local authorities and communities are actively involved in conservation efforts to protect the beach’s natural beauty and ensure its sustainability.
