3 Days in Rangat for a Romantic Getaway

Rangat is a hidden gem in the Andamans, perfect for couples looking for peace, stunning beaches, and quiet moments together. With its lush green forests, serene coastlines, and slow pace of life, it’s the ideal spot to unwind and reconnect. I’ve spent time here just watching the sunsets, walking barefoot on empty beaches, and enjoying fresh seafood by the shore—it’s pure magic.
