Ramakrishna Beach
రామకృష్ణ బీచ్
The liveliest beach in the city center, stretching along the seafront road, with a submarine museum and war memorial along the way. Crowds peak in the evening.
Ramakrishna Beach takes its name from the nearby Ramakrishna Mission and is Visakhapatnam's most representative city beach. It stretches along the seafront promenade. To the north lie the INS Kursura Submarine Museum, the Tu-142 Aircraft Museum and the 'Victory at Sea' memorial, and to the south you can see the harbor. In the evenings, local families stroll here, eat snacks and ride horses, and at dawn you can watch the sunrise over the Bay of Bengal. The waves and rip currents are strong, so swimming is generally not recommended. Admission is free, and strolling along the seafront under the night lights is very popular.
