Vizag Yachting Festival set to be India’s first of its kind event

The wind in your hair, the sun in your eyes and the ocean at your feet – the time onboard a yacht, spells out the life of indulgence. Bringing this memory-making experience to our shores is the Vizag Yachting Festival, a one of its kind in the city and the nation.

Cruise control

In the month of March, luxurious sail and motor yachts will be seen dotting our stretch of the Bay of Bengal. Tempting you to get onboard and cruise away from the concrete jungle towards the distant horizon, each of these yachts will traverse varied routes every day. Mornings by the bay would thus adorn the adventurous air of yacht trips, while the evenings would come alive with galas and dinners. Amidst all the attraction, do keep your eyes open for the 37-feet long cruiser, Sea Norita, and the 46 feet long Gypsea, which will leave you spellbound.

Destination Vizag

Already having made its mark as a clean city with verdant hills and a long coastline, this event organized by the Andhra Pradesh Tourism is the first venture of its kind in the entire country. Organised with the support of E Factor, it places the city on the global tourist’s map, as a destination one must not miss.

Will you be there?


Ensure that you do not miss the beautiful picture that the yachts would paint on Vizag’s azure blue waters. With many events that will slowly unfold over the coming days, cut the queue and book your place on the yachts right away. And yes, if you aren’t from the city, then now’s the time to get those tickets and accommodations booked as well.

When: 28-31 March 2018

Venue: The Fishing Harbour *Subject to Change*
