With the second-longest coastline in India, it’s time Andhra Pradesh gets the attention it deserves among globetrotters.
With a coastline that stretches over 900 kilometres, Andhra Pradesh is home to some of the most beautiful beaches off the Bay of Bengal. While some of these places are fairly well-known and attract throngs of tourists during local festivals, there are several other hidden gems where you might get lucky and spot dolphins frolicking in the sea.
Besides an enviable range of watersports and delectable seafood offerings, some of these places are also home to interesting museums, such as the Submarine and Aircraft Museum on Ramakrishna Beach. From the Vizag Yachting Festival, the first edition of which was held in March this year, to the Machilipatnam Beach Festival—there’s plenty to look forward to on the shores of Andhra Pradesh. The state tourism website, aptdc.gov.in, is the best way to stay updated on the local festivals and events organised through the year.
