Dicksons Pinnacle

★★★★★ (1,288)

A visit to Havelock island is not complete without at least one dive at Dixon’s Pinnacle. The pinnacles were discovered years ago by a local Andaman instructor called Dickson and since then the site has been the one of the most popular dive sites around Havelock.

The pinnacles are covered in many species of colourful hard and soft corals and are surrounded by schools of fish, big and small.
