Timings

Chidiyatapu Beach:

The best time to experience the sunset at Chidiyatapu Beach is in the late afternoon, typically around 4:30 PM to 5:30 PM, depending on the season. Arriving at the beach at least half an hour before sunset allows you to find a comfortable spot and soak in the mesmerizing views as the sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky with vibrant hues.

Munda Pahad:

For a comfortable and enjoyable experience, it's generally recommended to start your trek to Munda Pahad in the early afternoon, preferably around 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM.Starting your trek during this time allows you to take advantage of the relatively cooler temperatures compared to the peak midday heat. Additionally, it provides sufficient daylight hours to complete the trek comfortably and reach the summit of Munda Pahad before sunset.

I strongly recommend this tour company. We hardly wasted any time due to meticulous planning by Miss Fareeda, the team member of the tour company. She was available all the time to assist us, while making plans, during the tour, and till we reached our hometown. Next time I go Andaman again will go via them.
