Vizag Coastal Explorer and Konaseema Backwaters Extension

Visakhapatnam · Bheemunipatnam · Konaseema · Rajahmundry·
TOUR RATING
New on Evynx

A slower-paced coastal-to-delta circuit through Konaseema's backwaters, for honeymooners.

About this tour

A 4-day coastal-to-delta circuit from Visakhapatnam - a Dutch colonial heritage stop at Bheemunipatnam, the mangrove-lined Coringa Wildlife Sanctuary near Kakinada, a brief detour into the French-colonial Puducherry enclave of Yanam, and two nights aboard a private luxury houseboat through the coconut-fringed backwaters of Konaseema, often called the 'Kerala of Andhra Pradesh.' Unlike the catalog's Vizag Hills and Valley Circuit, which heads inland to the Eastern Ghats and Araku Valley, this package stays entirely along the coast and the Godavari delta - a genuinely different geography built for travellers seeking backwaters, mangroves and a slower-paced houseboat experience rather than hill country. Built for honeymooners, premium family groups and experiential travellers wanting a higher-exclusivity alternative to mass-market coastal holidays, with an open-jaw flight format that arrives in Visakhapatnam and departs from Rajahmundry.

Highlights

  • Erra Matti Dibbalu - red sand dunes shaped over millions of years, a national geo-heritage site
  • Bheemunipatnam and Yanam - contrasting Dutch and French colonial enclaves along the same coast
  • Coringa Mangroves - India's second-largest mangrove forest, home to fishing cats and otters
  • Konaseema Houseboat - a private cruise through delta canals lined with coconut groves
  • Antarvedi - the point where the Godavari's fresh water visibly meets the Bay of Bengal's salt
