    If you’re staying at Sea Shell Coral Cove, just walk to the Port Blair jetty and hop on a local ferry that leaves every 30 to 45 minutes. The 30 minute ride takes you straight to the calm reef on Sanket Island, where kids can try snorkeling with a mask and fins or just play in the shallow sand. A small inflatable raft or beach ball can add a bit more fun for the little ones.
