It has the best corals reefs and more sea lives compared to other places in Andaman. This best place for Glass bottom boat ride and Snorkeling. Unfortunately there are no scuba diving and sea walk activities present at my time of visit.Tips to fellow travelers:All passenger boats departs to Jolly Buoy Island by 9:00AM,10:00AM and 11:00AM which I think is the last boat. I would suggest to get tickets before hand as only 25 person can board the boat at a time.Cost- 800rs for boat ride to jolly buoy.Glass Bottom ride- 500rs per person They will show you 3 different reefs which are nearby.Rent a Milton bottle--200rs refundable Note- Please carry valid ID proof , Pack the food before as you won't can any food on the island.

Words can't do justice to the beauty of this place. Its great for swimming, very clean and developed island. It has great sea-life around and great for snorkeling.It is a must visit place of Andamans, only then a person can understand the meaning of its true beauty.

The beach itself is nice - has a combination of activity and leisure options. However, there are too many restrictions. You need to hire water bottles (at a nominal fees) so that you don't carry plastic bottles on to the beach - but when you get to the beach, you realize that people easily flout those norms. There should be another way to ensure that people do not litter the beach. Also, there a queue for the boats and there are limited number of boats going each morning. You will have to fill up the form and then wait in the queue to board the boat. The marine museum is interesting, so you may want to visit it while waiting for your boat. The water is crystal clear and you can enjoy your time at leisure on the beach. There are standard water activities here - and you can enjoy them a little better as the beach is bigger than Elephant Beach at Havelock - giving you more area to enjoy the activities. The beach is not very commercial - and has very limited amenities.

Morning 0730 we left room for Jolly bouy by car.First We had to go to Wandoor which is appx 40km away for Port Blair.Car charge Rs 1200. Mr Raju the tour operator already taken permit to Jolly bouy for Rs 50 p/p , ferry ticket Rs 750 p/p and commission Rs100 p/p. From wandoor the ferry took appx 45 min to reach Jolly Bouy. Original Id proof required to be carried. 45 min boat journey is also wonderful. From jollybouy snokerling/ glass bottom boat ride being carried out to facilitate the coral/ colour full sea fish view. Through the glass at the bottom of boat it looks like a natural aquarium. For these activities they charge extra money. Otherwise you can have sea bath. The water there is amazingly crystal clear over the white sand. No polybag/ plastic bottles are allowed. One can take water bottle for RS 5 on rent and Rs 200 security deposit. Changing room facility is there.

This place is heaven for Glass bottom boat ride and under water activities like Snorkeling, Sea Walking. I would recommend this place over Neil and other islands in Andaman for under water corals and marine life.All passenger boats departs to Jolly Buoy Island between 9.00am to 9.30am and the same boat returns between 1.00pm to 1.30 pm. 750/- per person charged which includes passenger boat trip from Wandoor to Jolly Buoy Island (approx 30 minutes ride) and 10 minutes complimentary glass bottom boat ride. Additional 30 minutes of glass bottom boat ride charged 400/- per person. Its worth to take additional ride , you will see many species of fishes in the water like Blue Starfish, Sea honeymoon, Sea cucumber etc. & scenic under water corals during this glass bottom boat journey.Thousands of blue fishes on the surface of sea creates a lovely view. Snorkeling trip would be charged extra between 300-500. You can skip snorkeling if you are going for additional glass bottom boat ride.Since this place is no plastic zone you can't carry plastic items except packed food,Chips, Cold drinks. Solid plastic water bottles are available on rent of 5/- each bottle.A refundable security amount 100/- deposited for each water bottle. It is recommended to get your food packed from Port Blair only.Cons.You need a forest permit handy in advance to visit Jolly Buoy Island. Limited number of forest permits are issued everyday (~250 every day).

Don't miss this Place.I feel this is the best place in Andaman, as good as Radhanagar beach.It has the best corals. Glass bottom ride and snorkeling was just out of the world. We did Scuba diving in Havelock, but they were not as good as Jolly Buoy. I wish I could just stay there for a few days :)Tips to fellow travelers:1) During peak season get the ticket and permit in advance. We paid an agent to get it for us.2) Carry food and water as there is nothing available on the island. Take food in some container or paper, as plastic is not allowed. Also, rent a milton bottle and carry lots of water.3) Take snorkeling gear or Swimming Goggles along. Its beautiful down there.4) Reach Wandoor beach a bit early and don't miss the museum. You get to know the name of many of the corals and then see them live at Jolly Buoy.

The trip to Jolly Boys (now distorted to Jolly Buoy) Islands is a 45-min boat trip from Wandoor. The boat-trip, through the narrow straights between islands in the Mahatma Gandhi Marine National Park (past Alexandra, Holiday and Rutland) is breathtaking in itself.The last-bit after the larger boat can go no more is done in small motor-boats, upto 8 passengers at a time. These conveniently have glass-bottoms, so one has a clear view (sun-rays permitting) of coral below the water-surface.The beach at Jolly Boys is coarse coral-dust (it hurts). The water is pristine, from emerald to turquoise as it deepens. The sea is not reliable. Being placed towards the open sea on the west-end of the archipelago, only the inner portions of the sea are swimmable. On the outer side, the currents can be dangerous.One can stay behind for a second boat to pick you up, but is not advisable - the boat may be cancelled for want of passengers.There is no organised retail - carry your own water and food.Do be gracious enough not to litter - there are no janitors to clean up after you.Trips to this group is alternated with the visit to Red-Skin island on different dates. You cant always expect to visit Jolly Boys - that day might be the RedSkin ferry! Check before you leave for Wandoor.
