Nautika is preparing to launch Nautika Prride – a next-generation passenger vessel set to redefine maritime travel across the archipelago.

Positioned as a high-speed passenger ferry in the Andamans, Nautika Prride is part of Nautika’s catamaran fleet and has been designed for inter-island travel across the region. Built in India and certified by the Indian Register of Shipping (IRS), the 400-seat catamaran will cruise at speeds of up to 24 knots and operate across the Andaman Islands.

A new era of ferry travel in the Andamans

Nautika Prride has been designed with a focus on passenger comfort and inter-island travel experience. The vessel features spacious seating and interiors across four travel classes – Luxury, Royal, VIP, and Business – allowing travellers to choose between different seating categories and onboard facilities.

The ferry has been designed for leisure and regional travel across the Andaman Islands, including family holidays and island tourism routes.

Engineered for speed, stability & reliability

At the heart of Nautika Prride is a double-hull catamaran platform designed for inter-island travel across the Andaman Islands. The vessel has been developed for open-sea stability and passenger movement across regional ferry routes.

With a cruising speed of 24 knots, Nautika Prride will operate among the faster passenger ferries in the Andaman Islands. The vessel also incorporates dual-hull stability systems and maritime safety mechanisms designed in line with international standards. Nautika Prride, with a seating capacity of 400 passengers, is among the larger passenger ferries operating in the region.

Internationally certified safety standards

Nautika Prride has been approved by the Indian Register of Shipping (IRS) and has been designed in compliance with maritime safety standards, including structural safety systems, evacuation protocols, fire safety mechanisms, and operational safeguards.

Nautika operates under weather-monitoring and sailing protocols in coordination with maritime authorities and regional advisories.

400 seats, four classes, two cafés, and two viewing decks

Designed to accommodate 400 passengers, Nautika Prride includes four travel categories:

• Luxury Class
• Royal Class
• VIP Class
• Business Class

The vessel also features two onboard cafés and viewing decks, along with seating areas and onboard dining facilities for inter-island travel across the Andaman Islands.

A proud Indian vessel built for global standards

Built in India and designed in line with international standards, Nautika Prride reflects developments in Indian maritime engineering and passenger transport infrastructure. The vessel marks an expansion in organised passenger ferry operations across the Andaman Islands.

“Nautika Prride reflects the future of maritime travel in India — faster, safer, more comfortable, and globally benchmarked. With this vessel, we are introducing a completely new standard of passenger experience to the Andaman Islands.”— Anoop Kumar, Director, Nautika.
