    If you’re staying at Sea Shell Coral Cove, you can walk to the Port Blair jetty and hop on a local ferry that leaves every 30 45 minutes. The 30 minute ride gets you to Sanket Island, where the calm, shallow reef is great for kids to try snorkeling with a mask and fins. Bring a life jacket and a small beach picnic; the kids can build sandcastles while you relax on the shore.
