The route written by Pratik is very much right. but to surf jolly buoy island, you have to get permit in advance. our hotel's care taker had arranged this permit after trying for consistent two three days. in Oct. 2017 we have paid 800₹ p.p. remember this is only permit rate. after reaching wandoor, one should have to purchase ship tickets, and glass bottom ride. overall a costly deal for that day, but it is totally worth. jolly buoy island is under control of forest depends and they control the visitors per day very limited. so try two three days advance. in addition to Pratik's answer, reach early as he said because not many ferry run for this island. and it remains opened only upto 12 o'clock. after that all tourists have to vacate the island.
