Like the name suggests, there are big conch stature built. If you visit the place in the mid day time, you can see people collecting conch mostly for commercial purpose. Beautiful small beach. You can spend quality time there. Since there is no rush you can take plenty of pictures and capture till you drop. You can also have a good view of sunset.

As the name indicates,there is a big sangu(SHELL) located near the shore.The beach looks clean and less crowded with less shops. Sanguthurai Beach is one of the calmest yet cleanest beaches that you should go to, during your visit to Kanyakumari. Sanguthurai Beach is located in the southernmost part of India, and you can feel the fierce power of the Indian Ocean there. However, Sanguthurai Beach is a pretty tranquil place with white sand beaches that sets a perfect background to the coastlineYou can also see Vivekananda Rock Memorial from here in the coastline of Sanguthurai Beach. If vigilant enough,you can also spot a white pillar protruding from the sea at Sanguthurai Beach. In addition to all these attractions,its lukewarm water is perfect for swimming.

Its a kind of nature picnic.. Transportation is very poor to access this area.. Very nice place to enjoy and chill with friends. Travelling by own vehicle is preferable..

The sunset around this time of the year usually happens around 6 15 pm. It would be good to be present here atleast 1 hour before the sunset. That ways you get to sit on the rocks, have a view of the beach waves, read a book, click photos or simply chat !
10. Vattakotai Beach
