Start your trip with a visit to the Paradise Beach, a pristine sandy beach with crystal clear water, surrounded by coconut trees. You can take a ferry to reach the beach, which will take you through the backwaters of Chunnambar River. Spend some quality time here, take a dip in the water, and relax on the beach. You can also enjoy various water sports activities like kayaking, canoeing, and backwater sailing.
Head to Auroville, an experimental town established in 1968. Take a tour of the town and learn about its unique culture, architecture, and community living. Visit the Matrimandir, a golden globe-shaped structure that represents the divine consciousness. You can meditate inside the Matrimandir, but prior booking is required. In the afternoon, explore the nearby cafes and eateries that offer healthy and organic food options.
Start your day with a visit to the Promenade Beach, also known as the Rock Beach. Take a stroll along the beach, and enjoy the cool breeze and beautiful sunrise. Afterward, head to the Botanical Garden, a vast garden with different species of plants and flowers. You can also visit the aquarium inside the garden and witness various marine animals. End your trip with a visit to the famous Sri Aurobindo Ashram and explore its spiritual and cultural significance.
If you have more time, you can explore other nearby places like the French War Memorial, Chunnambar Boat House, and Ousteri Lake. If you have less time, you can skip the Botanical Garden and Ashram and spend more time at the beach or Auroville. Don't forget to carry sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat to protect yourself from the sun. Also, carry enough water to stay hydrated during the trip.
