Beaches In India

More than 6000 kms of coastline in India has brought a unique distinction to the Indian subcontinent. It is not without reason that thousands of tourists from outside India and millions from within the country are going out for their picnics and holidays to these beaches which number many hundreds. From the western coast of India, comprising of states like Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamilnadu, to the eastern coast ranging from West Bengal to Andhra Pradesh, every state has few beaches, where people from within and outside the state, throng for spending some quality time.

Being in the shores of the Arabian Sea in the East and Indian Ocean in the west, these beaches in India have water expanses that extend to a great distance. While the mainland shores receive a high traffic of tourists, the islands of Andaman and Nicobar Island, Lakshadweep also are full of beaches where tourists from all around the country as well as from foreign nations arrive for their vacations. These are places where the sun and the surf along with sandy shores have attracted millions of people, who yearn for peace and tranquillity.

Visiting these places for a few days and staying in the resorts and luxury hotels could be the perfect idea of a holiday. Some of the waterfronts as in Gujarat and Mumbai beaches have plenty of water sports activities going around for the adventure lovers. There are fairs and merry-go-rounds found along these shores for the entertainment of the kids and children. A simple walk with hand in hand can be quite relaxing for the honeymoon couples, who visit these beaches in India for their honeymoon trips.

In the tour and travel packages that are provided by various tour operators, there are destinations comprising of beaches which are being taken up by the tourists.
