Yarada Beach

Only 15 km from the city, Yarada Beach is an excellent day off from the busy life of Visakhapatnam. Imagine a stretch of sand running into the sea, priceless rolls of palm trees, leisure seekers lounging with families and playing beach sports… that’s Yarada Beach for you in a nutshell.

So you can easily make a day or short weekend out of it. Other than the beach, Yarada neighbourhood is known for its hills and the Dolphin Lighthouse.

A village near Visakhapatnam, Annavaram has beaches and temples in abundance. The most famous temple in Andhra after Tirupati Balaji is located here, and goes by the name of Annavaram Devasthanam.

A mix of Telugu and French culture, from food to architecture, language to census; Yanam is located 183 km from Vizag and makes for a small quaint town in Pondicherry .

Rama Krishna Beach is also popularly known as RK beach. It is one of the most popular beaches of Vizag, and I must say this is the place which is the heart of the city. The RK beach name comes from Ramakrishna Mission ashrama over the beach road from the park.

The beach is situated on the east coast of the Bay of Bengal , which is about two to three from the city. The beach is very easy to access, and this is a place where all ages people can enjoy their time.

It has super clean water; it is good for those who love to play with water and along with also you can able to find camels and horse rides. Besides the beach, there are also you find other spots to visit which are aquariums and museums. It is one of the best places in Visakhapatnam on a 1-day trip.

Google Review – I have never seen a beach with ROCKS. So it was a great experience for me to be there. And at the right time in the evening, black clouds surrounding the beach look more aggressive. The view was extremely awesome. Just see these pictures and enjoy them.

Katiki Waterfalls is one of the best sightseeing places in Vizag. I must recommend this place if you are an adventure lover. The place is situated in the Alluri Sitaram Raju district of the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. This is the place where you can see the outstanding gardens which are covered with lush green forests.

The place is simply to get rich by car which will take approx 2 hours and 50 minutes journey via Araku. On this journey, you will see many small shacks selling coconut water, roasted corn, pure organic honey, and other food as well.

Once you will reach this mind-blowing place, you will feel wow for sure. This Instagrammable picturesque waterfall is above 50 feet high and the most important thing is that the name comes from the tribal dance. It is one of the best tourist places near Vizag within 200 km.

Google Review – Best waterfall near Araku valley. Personal cars are not allowed. U will have to take a Local Jeep which will take 1500Rs. It will drop u at the bottom from where u will have to trek for 100m to reach the waterfall. U should bring a change of clothes so that u can enjoy yourself to the fullest.

At 1st must say this is a place which has a marvelous creation of nature. The place has located 90 kilometers away from the city of Visakhapatnam and it is almost 750 meters above huge sea level. It is located in the Ananthagiri hills which are situated in the Araku Valley in the Visakhapatnam district.

The place has an outstanding landscape, green forest, and a birth-taking hill covered with lush green grass and wild fauna, which is to attract the people more. If you are in the city of Vizag, then you must visit this place to explore the enigma.

It is also the best option for those who love animals and wild birds. Between the cave, you will also be able to see the bats and golden geckos. This is one of the best views and picturesque locations which will thrill your day and is among the best places to visit in Araku Valley.

Google Review – Avoid if you are scared of depth or caves. Otherwise, enjoy the colorful cave and the dripping water(be careful, due to the dripping water, sometimes the stairs are wet and slippery). Anyways it’s beautiful and the river beside is a beautiful view as well. You can find many roadside crafts vendors, maybe you can consider a little souvenir. Enjoy your trip.

If you are looking for the best tourist places in Vizag, think of Indira Gandhi Zoological Park. It acts as a home for approximately eighty different species of animals spread over an area of 625 acres full of lush greenery. The place is situated only 5 kilometers away from the Kailasagiri.

Indira Gandhi Zoological Park is set amidst the Eastern Ghats and is a part of the Kambalakonda Forest Reserve. The facility also facilitates visitors with informative displays about the flora and fauna that can be found there. Besides this, it has an open-air theatre that also frequently hosts classical music concerts by eminent artists from across the globe.

If you love to explore this park, then you must take a camera with you. Because while you are visiting you will see many animals like panthers, Lions tigers, and others, so you can click some pictures which will stay forever in your memory. This is one of the best places to visit in Vizag for 3 days.

Google Review – A good day trip with family and kids. Well shaded with plenty of places to enjoy and sit. A slightly longer walk to cover the entire zoo and some enclosures are presently under maintenance. Clean and well-kept with attentive staff.

When we talk about the best places to visit in Vizag, then we should not ignore Rushikonda beach. It is one of the most scenic and popular beaches in Visakhapatnam, which has clean waters and golden coral sands. It is also well-known as the Venice of Andhra Pradesh.

The beach is located in Vizag city near Rushikonda village. People are used to saying that the place is a house of colorful birds and various types of snakes. So be aware of that. The place has also a small temple, known as Veera Venkateswara Swamy Temple, dedicated to Lord Vishnu.

This is an amazing tourist destination near Visakhapatnam, which has gained popularity for its breathtaking views of hills and beaches. Kailasagiri Park is famous for its 360-degree view of Beaches and Hill stations, which are very close to it. This park is specially designed for tourists, so you can take the best pictures during your vacation in Vizag.

Just go to the top of the hill and witness the beauty of beaches and sunrise/sunset with family or friends. If you are going to visit Top Station, then you must stay here till night because there is no food available here at night. So plan your trip carefully, before going there with family or friends.

Google Review – One of the famous places in Vizag city. The beauty of the place is the viewpoints that give a bird’s eye view feel of both the city and the Bay of Bengal.

Other nearby tourist places include Andhra University Museum, Bheemili Beach, and Odiyan Rock Cut Caves. This is one of the top places to visit in Vizag at night.

An almost two thousand-ton submarine parked ashore allows one to walk through it and see the internal workings of a submarine, tiny rooms where they had to manage to do their daily activities. The place is open from 2-8 pm. It has a bathroom facility as well.

Once you are there, spend some time at its most popular landmark, Dolphin’s Nose Lighthouse. The lighthouse is one of a kind and was built in 1892. This icon of Visakhapatnam offers an unforgettable experience as it overlooks Port Visakhapatnam’s coastline, providing a beautiful view of sea activities at night.

It is also very famous among photographers because of its lighthouse characteristics and architecture that shines brightly during sunrise and sunset times. Visitors can get close to lighthouses by walking up some steps through a hillock.

A mini zoo is also located nearby for those who wish to have a family outing with kids; look forward to seeing deer, owls, foxes, and guinea pigs here. It is one of the famous tourist places near Vizag within 200 Kms.

Google Review – A Awesome place to visit in Vizag, It’s under the control of the Indian Navy, and for the normal public we have to choose Yarada road, Just maps the location to Yarada and the once-inclined road starts map for the lighthouse. The opening time is from 3 Pm to 5 Pm and remember to carry ID proof.

It is believed that the temple was constructed by the Vishnukundins, rulers of a kingdom that ruled parts of eastern Telangana , northern Andhra Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh from the 6th to 8th centuries.
