Kalapathar Beach, Sandy beach with black rocks on Havelock Island, Andaman Islands.
The eastern coastline of Kalapathar Beach extends along turquoise waters, featuring a combination of white sand and large black stones bordering the shore.
The beach received its name from the black road that runs parallel to the coast, reflecting the geographical features that have marked this location through time.
Local residents maintain small plantations of bananas and paddy fields near the beach, continuing traditional agricultural practices of the Andaman Islands.
Visitors need to bring their own supplies as the beach lacks restaurants and facilities, with only occasional vendors selling fresh coconuts during peak season.
The contrast between dark rocks, silver sand, and emerald water creates natural patterns that change throughout the day with the movement of tides.
