About About the place

Barren Island Volcano is a captivating geological feature located in the Andaman Sea. As India's sole active volcano, it presents a rare opportunity to witness volcanic activity, though direct access to the island is restricted. Visitors typically observe the volcano from a distance via chartered boats, hoping to catch sight of eruptions or volcanic ash. The island itself is uninhabited, adding to its mystique and remote appeal. Reaching Barren Island requires significant planning and permission, and the journey is lengthy, often involving an overnight sea voyage from Port Blair.

If you are visiting Indonesia, you have to see this volcano. It is such a beautiful sight. In order to reach the top, you have to hike and it can be a little dangerous so only those who have some experience hike. The view from top is absolutely gorgeous and you would love it. It was a thrilling and exhilarating experience and so much worth it.
