There is a small fishing village in front of the resort and a few shops selling only very basic supplies.

Why is Hawks Bill featured on Eagle Fly Free?

While we rarely pick and recommend specific accommodations or restaurants, I believe Hawks Bill resort deserves it. We have spent here 3 nights and it is the best value for money accommodation on Middle Andaman island.

Hawksbill nest is also conveniently located to break the arduous 13 hour bus journey between Port Blair and Diglipur into half, making it a welcome stop in interesting area.

I guess it would be worth 3*** rating. Highlights of the area worth spending some 2-3 nights in Hawksbill nest resort. EagleFlyFree.com team has spent here 3 nights. 2 on the way up to the north and one on the way back south.
