Anchoring the supply chain of India's Andaman and Nicobar archipelago, Port Blair sits in the Andaman Sea roughly 1,200 km off the mainland. Its Haddo Wharf is the principal berth for cargo and passenger vessels, while a dedicated bulk wharf at Chatham Island and added container-handling capacity extend its reach. The port is the islands' lifeline, landing general cargo, building materials, fuel and foodstuffs shipped from mainland ports. Passenger ferries also run from here to Havelock (Swaraj Dweep) and the mainland, operated by lines such as Makruzz and Green Ocean. Port infrastructure is administered by the Andaman and Lakshadweep Harbour Works. For larger containerised volumes, the mainland ports of Chennai, Kolkata and Visakhapatnam remain the upstream hubs feeding Port Blair.
