Top 5 Beach destinations of India

  • Goa

Goa without a doubt is the first choice . Being India’s party capital, Goa also hosts sunburn festival every year when a conglomerate of party mongers and DJs from all over the world get together at one of the chosen beaches. Christmas and new years time is when Goa energy is at its full potential. This is a place to swim, sun bath, sip beer and again to swimming 🙂 Do nothing but relax throughout the day. In the night enjoy parties, hypnotic music and dance which will add to your happiness quotient. Stay in north Goa for the buzz and in south Goa if you prefer less crowd and privacy. South Goa also has better properties.

  • Andaman Nicobar Islands –

Natural beauty simply adds to the essence of beach vacation, shining white sand, beautiful bluish green waters, coral reefs and time that stands still. Head to Andaman , it promises rejuvenating holiday experience along with many sports like scuba diving, snorkeling, trekking, elephant rides etc.Its not just Goa where some people like us go every year, I have a friend who goes to Andaman almost every year for his annual vacation. You have direct flights from kolkata, Chennai and Vishakhapattnam for Andaman’s capital Port blair.

  • Pondicherry

Famous for many reasons – Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Auroville, French architecture, Meditation and relaxation and ofcourse beach holidaying. If peace and a break is the most sough after, then Pondicherry, in south india is the beach destination you should head to. Its a unque blend of modern heritage and spirituality. Besides Pondicherry offers interesting Beach activities that incude camping at the beach, sunbathing, canoeing, kayaking and backwater sailing.

  • Kovalam, Poovar near Trivendrum

Kerela offers best of both worlds – beaches as well as backwaters. Kovalam is the beach town by the arabian sea. Famous for its three adjacent beaches,it offers beach holiday along with Ayurveda wellness treatments. Besides, you can opt for any of the leisure activities like catamaran cruise or hire a surfboard to dive into the sea-waves.

  • Gokarna

I know couple of people who consider Om beach in Gokarna as their favorite .Gokarna, 190 kms down south of Goa is in Karnataka and offers peace and tranquility,non commercial atmosphere breaking away from Goa’s fast paced life. Popular beaches are Om Beach, Paradise Beach and Half-Moon Beach ,which have both fine sand and rocky coasts.
