The 24-Hour Destination: Port Blair (Sri Vijaya Puram)
One illustrative day. Hours, sea conditions and your own pace will change it.
Morning: Cellular Jail and its museum, with time to read and not rush; check that it is open (one listing says the museum closes on Mondays).
Late morning: a short walk or taxi ride to the nearby waterfront; leave time to rest.
Lunch: a local seafood restaurant; ask what the day's catch was.
Afternoon: the town's museums, or a boat trip if the sea allows; follow the guidance of licensed operators.
Evening: the Cellular Jail light-and-sound show, if you want one; times differ between sources, so confirm on the official ticketing site.
What to skip if short on time: extra beaches; see the jail and one waterfront.
