Is there any way to disable swipe gesture to open navigation drawer? Its really annoying when menu appears while swiping between tabs.

You can use

mDrawerLayout.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_LOCKED_CLOSED);

to lock your DrawerLayout so it won't be able to open with gestures. And unlock it with:

mDrawerLayout.setDrawerLockMode(DrawerLayout.LOCK_MODE_UNLOCKED);

Here you can find more info about DrawerLayout: Android API - DrawerLayout
