📜 Overview & History of German Jetty

German Jetty is a historic coastal landmark located at Mayabunder in North Andaman. Constructed during WWII by German engineers under British colonial supervision, the wooden jetty was once a primary timber export node for the Andaman forest department. Today, the wooden ruins jutting out into Mayabunder bay offer a tranquil atmosphere, cooling ocean breezes, and panoramic 180-degree sunset views across the sea. It is a favorite evening gathering spot for locals and offbeat travelers.
