Jallandhar Beach
Jallandhar
The small beach closest to town, just outside the southern walls of the old city, with rocky coastline views and a shrine on the hill overlooking the bay.
Jallandhar Beach lies just outside the southern walls of the old town and is within easy walking distance. The sand is modest, but the water is clear and rocky reefs surround the shore, making it good for evening strolls. On the small hill beside the beach is a little shrine dedicated to the head of the demon king Jallandhar. The beach is said to take its name from him. There are small seafood restaurants and tea stalls nearby. Swimming is not advised when the waves are big.
