The pictures showing the 2 islands Ross & Smith by a sand bar surrounded by crystal clear open sea waters is the aerial view of the islands. When you land at the place, during the low tides you get to see a sand bar connecting the two islands on which you can walk to reach from one island to the other. When the tide rises, the sand bar is covered by the sea and you see two completely different islands during the high tides that make this amazing place look exalted.

The story doesn’t end with seeing this sand bar and walking from one island to the other. There are beautiful eco huts lined up by the beachside having greenery spread out all over makes it very soothing and a mere sight of it will make you feel refreshed and erase away all your stress. You can spend around 2-3 hours in this place without getting bored if you are exploring it the right way.

Having crystal clear waters, one may plan to snorkel here. However, there are no service providers for the same here because to keep the island pristine, commercial activities have not been introduced. You can carry snorkel gears and masks of your own to explore what is hidden underneath these beautiful gem-green waters.


The beach is surrounded by a tropical forest, which we found interesting when we went trail hiking through this. It gives you good vibes and a feel of nature whenever you are amidst the woods doing nothing just lazing around and absorbing whatever Mother Nature has created for a visual treat.
