Since vehicles are not allowed to wait outside Cellular Jail, all guests will be dropped at the parking point (approximately 400 meters from the entry gate) and will have to walk from the parking point to the entrance. After the Jail visit or Sound & Light Show, guests will need to walk back to the parking point to board the vehicle. Beaches close by sunset or by 17:30 hrs, whichever is earlier.
