Banana boat rides, treehouse stays, boat rides, picnic spots, pristine beaches, and backwaters, Paradise Beach is perfect for a weekend getaway and is an unconventional spot near Pondicherry. What is the first thing that comes to your mind when we say Pondicherry? The beaches, seafood, Auroville, Aurobindo Ashram, the French colony, and so on and so forth. But besides the usual hangout spots, if you are looking to do something different, how about heading to Chunnambar Boat House or Paradise Beach, which is just about 8 kilometres from Pondicherry? Located on Cuddalore Main Road, this truly is an unexpected paradise near Pondy. The experience is magical because once you buy your tickets, you ride a boat and reach Paradise beach (also called Chunnambar Beach).
The view from the beach is breathtaking and the experience is even more special when you take along your own tent and camp by the beach waters. You have the option of packing some along with you some munchies or just stopping by the multi-cuisine restaurant, Seagulls. The spot is also great for photography and other shoots. If you are looking to do a pre or post-wedding shoot, this is the place. The backwater and boating make for an awesome backdrop. Head here with a big group of friends and you can have your own game of volleyball.
