'To the left of the temple, not to its right! We didn’t find it the first time around and were wondering where the boats were, but close to sunset, we took the alley dotted with colourful shops and – with a relaxing soundtrack to guide us – reached the sands and found the bluish boats. We were immediately in love with the place and its vibe, rented a body board and a surf board and were off to enjoy my first surf lesson.' #waterlust

Marvel at ancient stone carvings like Arjuna's Penance and the Shore Temple while exploring this UNESCO-listed coastal town. Spend afternoons wandering between Krishna's Butter Ball, a precariously balanced boulder, and the magnificent Pancha Pandava Rathas carved from single rocks.
