Diglipur is a friendly, dusty little town in the North and Middle Andaman district of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands in India. The main attractions do not lie within the town itself, but this is where buses arrive and depart from. Tourist accommodation is located in the nearby village of Kalipur.
Owned by the same people as the one in Havelock, it has beautiful duplex bamboo and wooden A/C non-A/C cottages, a restaurant with good food and a bar.
By ferry
Ferries come from Port Blair a few times per week and take around 10 hours. You can book ferry tickets at the administration block.
It's 30 minutes by bus from Diglipur to the Aerial Bay jetty (where ferries dock) and then another 30 minutes to Kalipur, where the "best" accommodation is called Pristine Beach Resort.
