Picnicking at Ramanarayanam

Road trip to Bheemli

One of the most scenic drives for city-dwellers is the road to the beach that takes you all the way to Bheemli and its beautiful beachside. Feel the wind in your hair on a two-wheeler and enjoy the bay views and smooth road that stay with you for most of the trip.

Stargazing at Lambasingi


Nothing compares to the experience of watching a million stars light up the night-sky at Lambasingi. Pack your winter-wear and plan for a bonfire. And yes, don’t forget to pack food and water.

Tee time at the golf course


The sprawling greens of the East Point golf club offer a great place to try out your golf skills. Having been around since 1884, this is the only golf course in Visakhapatnam that’s open to everyone. So head there for the experience.
