Manginapudi Beach
Once served as a major port, Manginapudi is currently a fishing village located on the shores of a beach nearly 11 km from Machelipatnam. This beautiful natural beach is unique for its black soil and also a natural bay comprising a shallow water level. A dance school on the beachside is quite famous for its classical dance courses of Kuchipudi.
Apart from that, the beach also attracts huge crowds during the Maghapoornami festival when people come here to take a dip in seawater. Another popular festival 'Krishna Utsav' is held during February or March to see a flock of devotees on the beachside.
