Sunhaven Isles: how to plan a week of beaches without a package

The Sunhaven Isles are three small islands linked by a morning ferry. A week costs about INR 38,000 per person (demo) if you stay in homestays.

Sample costs, demo.
IslandBest forFerry from mainStay (night)
KariSnorkelling40 minINR 1,800
ManaQuiet beach1 h 10INR 1,400
TolaSunset walks1 h 40INR 1,200

The ferry timetable changes in the monsoon; check it the day before you travel. Cash is useful on Mana and Tola, where card machines are unreliable.

Pack reef-safe sunscreen and a dry bag. Do not touch coral or feed fish.

This is a demo story: every name, place, organisation and figure in it is fictional.
