The island has an avid collection of some of the oldest British and Japanese structures in India, that shows the luxurious life of Britishers after they occupied Andaman.

Ross Island, located in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands of India, is a place steeped in history and natural beauty. Once the administrative headquarters of the British Raj, it holds significant importance as a colonial settlement and a witness to the tumultuous events of the past. Today, Ross Island stands as a captivating destination for history buffs, nature lovers, and adventure seekers alike. From its intriguing ruins and remnants of British architecture to its pristine beaches and lush vegetation, the island offers a unique blend of cultural heritage and scenic charm.

Ross Island, officially known as Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Island, located just a short boat ride from Port Blair, holds a significant place in India's colonial history. Ross Island played a pivotal role in India's colonial history, serving as the administrative headquarters of the British in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands until it was abandoned after a devastating earthquake in 1941.

Named after Captain Daniel Ross, the Ross Island is now renamed as the "Netaji Shubash Chandra Bose Dweep" by prime minister Narendra Modi in 2018. It is a very small destination that comes under the south Andaman district, Port Blair and is barely 5 Kms from the Water Sports Complex, making it one of easiest inter-island to visit during your trip to Andamans.
One can get a boat to Ross Island from water sports complex in port blair. Boats run daily from port blair to Ross Island and it takes only 5 minutes to be there.

This Island was first occupied in 1782 and a sanatorium was build there, and then again in 1857 by the British who used it as a Administrative Headquarters for 85 years. During this time, a lot of important government offices were made by the British on this penal settlement, which were later abandoned after an earthquake in 1941.
