About Nautika
What makes Nautika different
Nautika Ferry started commercial operations in 2022 and quickly became the fastest private catamaran on Andaman routes. The Port Blair–Havelock crossing is completed in a consistent 90 minutes, with Nautika Lite (the rebranded Sealink vessels) running at a slightly lower speed but at more budget-friendly fares.
Nautika offers three seat classes -- Economy, Premium and Business -- across all six inter-island routes, making it the most flexible operator for travellers who want to customise comfort level per leg. The operator is particularly strong on the Neil Island routes, where it runs more daily sailings than any competitor.

Cancellation & refunds
Nautika ferry cancellation policy
Nautika follows a tiered cancellation policy applied by Go2Andaman at the time of refund. Charges depend on how far in advance you cancel:
- More than 72 hours before departure: Typically 10–15% cancellation fee; the balance is refunded to the original payment method.
- 24–72 hours before departure: 25–50% cancellation fee depending on the class booked.
- Less than 24 hours before departure: Usually non-refundable; a no-show is also treated as a cancellation.
- Weather cancellations: If Nautika cancels the sailing itself (rough seas, technical issues), you're entitled to a full refund or free rescheduling to the next available service.
To cancel, go to ferry.go2andaman.com/my-booking, pull up your reservation and hit "Cancel". Refunds typically reach your account in 5–7 working days.

How to get discounts on Nautika ferry tickets
Private Andaman ferries rarely run fixed discounts -- the cheapest way to travel Nautika is to book smartly. What actually works:
- Book early:Nautika releases seats on a dynamic inventory system. Economy and Premium classes often sell out 5–7 days before departure in peak season (October–May), so booking early locks in the lowest fare.
- Travel off-season: June to September crossings are noticeably cheaper -- Nautika drops lead-in fares to fill seats through the monsoon shoulder.
- Pick mid-morning / afternoon sailings: The first morning departure usually carries a premium. Mid-morning and afternoon sailings on the same day are often ₹100–₹300 cheaper for the same class.
- Check live prices every day: The search bar above shows the cheapest live fare across all operators. Use it before booking -- Nautika sometimes posts promotional fares that aren't advertised elsewhere.
- Group bookings: For groups of 8+ travellers, contact Go2Andaman customer support directly -- group discounts of up to 10% are occasionally extended on Royal / Business / Majesty class.
- Student & senior ID: Not applied automatically, but some Nautika sailings accept student/senior IDs for a 5–10% discount at the jetty counter -- carry originals.
