Yarada Beach

Reviewed By safat_23 - Kolkata (Calcutta), India

Vizag is a lovely city and always has been my favourite, this was my third trip to vizag and i visited this offbeat beach away from the city, the beach is isolated and offers a great view of the dolphin nose. You might have to change 2 buses from the main bus stand to reach there
