Viper island beach
Located near Port Blair, Viper Island is a paradise for nature lovers and history buffs. There are several versions of the origin of its name. According to one of them, the colonial ship Viper wrecked off the coast of this island. As a result, he became known as Viper and became the first British colony. Until the middle of the twentieth century there was a prison intended for imprisoning freedom fighters who rebelled against the rule of the British.
