Good beach area which is well maintained. Please dont litter the beach. Public toilets and dust bins are available.The Pondicherry pier, is quite a popular place and I think it is worth a visit to learn about the place, experience serenity and of course click some fabulous pictures/shoot some nice snippets. The pier where once the French boats docked, is now only a part of what it used to be before it was destroyed by the cyclone in the 1950s. As you can see in the picture, it’s not in the best condition anymore.

A Beautiful beach especially early morning sunrise and sunset time, itd be very great to watch 😍Very well maintained.It is not really a beach, it is a Water Front kind of a thing where we can sit on the rocks as shown in the pictures. A Must Visit in Pondicherry I can say!French constructions are amazing.There are few French Restaurants too! Enjoyed the place!

Its like Marine drive of Pondicherry. Its a long walk with so many cafes and shops on other side. People usually stroll around or sit near the rocks. Sometimes waves are so heavy the water splashes on face. Its always windy there. With so many hawkers selling something or the other. Its a lively place to enjoy your solitude. Irony isnt it! 💞

Very relaxing beach to spend time with family. No vehicles allowed during night. Its also called as rock beach. A spectacular beach view with a small old bridge. The pathway along the beach is sooo nearly maintained. One can spend nice time as a beach walk.

The sea looks beautiful from the Promenade. It is also very clean. You have amazing French structures on one side and the soothing sea on the other. The Gandhi Statue and War Memorial can also be found here. Must-visit!

Rock Beach (or, known as, Pondicherry Beach) is the popular stretch of beachfront in the city of Puducherry, India, along the Bay of bengal. It is a 1.2-kilometre-long stretch in Pondicherry, starts from War Memorial and end at Dupleix Park on the Goubert Avenue and it is very good place to enjoy and party with friends.

This is a rock beach. There is lot of rocks and we can have a good view of the ocean from hear. In early morning we can see the sun rise from hear, which is one of the best natural scenery which can be enjoyed by every one. The best time to enjoy hear is the early morning and In the evening. The sea breeze and the tide will make this location more enjoyable.Worth to watch and enjoy this location.

Review №54

This is the location of old pier and accessible beach for the fishermen. If you are here early you can watch fishermen going out into sea for their catch. Enjoy the sunrise . And also watch the fishermen coming back with their catch if you wait for a longer time. People can directly buy here.The old pier is closed to public. But is a good sight of the older times.

Beach in Pondicherry. Well maintained no shade. Would prefer to go to a sandy beach then stand and watch near a rocky sea shore. People do fishing and take pictures and enjoy breeze from sea.

Su
Review №58

Fantastically maintained. Also clean. The length is pretty decent. A walk to and fro is a wonderful experience. The sea breeze is soothing. During the afternoon and evening, the place full of crowd. Visit the Beach in the dawn atleast once, the Sun Rising from the ocean so magnificent to gaze at.

Review №83

This is the most famous part of Pondicherry, the beach front. People come here for morning and evening walks. And during both the hours, entry of cars and bikes in banned on the promenade.In the evening, youll find a lot of drunk people walking on the promenade, chasing people and eve-teasing. It is also kept dirty as these drunkards throw their beer bottles on the promenade itself. But there is heavy policing throughout the day and especially in the evening and police is aware of such people causing nuisances.
