    You can catch the local ferry from Port Blair jetty; the boats run every 30 45 minutes in December, so you’ll have plenty of windows to arrive. Once on Sanket Island the shallow reef is great for kids who want to try snorkeling with a basic mask and snorkel, and the calm beach is perfect for building sandcastles. If you’re staying nearby, Sea Shell Coral Cove is a family friendly option with good reviews.
