Radhanagar is a beach on the west coast of Havelock Island, officially Swaraj Dweep, in India's Andaman and Nicobar Islands, about 7 km from the island's centre in a straight line and about 12 km by road from Havelock Jetty. The beach holds Blue Flag certification, an international eco-label for beaches meeting strict environmental, safety and cleanliness standards, and is considered one of the cleanest in India. Time magazine named it among the best beaches in the world in 2004, and a travel site ranked it among the top ten beaches in Asia. Soft white sand curves in a long arc beside clear turquoise water, backed by dense tropical forest of tall trees. The waves are usually gentle, so it suits swimming, and at sunset the sky and sea turn orange and pink beyond the horizon. Visitors reach Havelock by ferry from Port Blair, then go by car or government bus from the jetty to the beach. Sunset is the most popular time. Follow the safety signs and respect the rules that keep the beach clean.
