Sitapur Beach
The sunrise beach at the far southeast tip of Neil Island, where limestone cliffs meet the open Andaman Sea. The scenery is wild and quiet.
Sitapur Beach lies at the far southeast tip of Neil Island, facing the open Andaman Sea, and is the island's sunrise spot. Limestone cliffs eroded by the waves rise on either side of the beach, and at low tide reef flats are exposed. The scenery is wild and peaceful. Waves are large, so swimming is not advisable. It is about 5 km from the jetty. It is best to cycle there early in the morning, then return to Bharatpur Beach for snorkelling.
