About Serenity Beach

As you venture into Pondicherry, a little deeper, you will end up at Serenity Beach. This beach is rarely touched by human feet, and that's why it seems more appealing than other beaches. The village surrounding the beach is mainly occupied by the fishermen; there are no such statues or stalls, but it is beautiful in its own way.

Serenity Beach:

Serenity Beach is also known as Kottapuram Beach, as the village nearby is called that. This beach is devoid of crowd and clamour, a man-made rock pier extends into the sea and paves the way for the excellent view of the surroundings. Visit this beach in the evening, only when you can relish all the pleasures.

The Serenity Beach is among the best and popular spots for surfing, offering suitable conditions for beginners, as well as for pros.

Apart from surfing, you can also experience various other key seaside activities, like kayaking and paddleboarding in the waters of the Bay of Bengal, or enjoying a relaxing day shopping and strolling across the golden sand.  The beach also offers you delicious and mouthwatering dishes, like the fish fry, prawn fry, and fish curry, among others, prepared in flavourful and authentic Tamil-style.
