Who doesn’t like to spend a peaceful evening by the beach, munching on burnt corn with the wind passing through and a beautiful view? Well, the perfect spot for the same is a beach. Infact a not-so-crowded beach. Last week I visited this the N4 beach. It’s a harbour located in Kasimedu, north of Chennai. It’s not a very popular beach so there weren’t a lot of people which actually helped me calm my mind and also gave me a relaxing vibe. A cool breeze blew and along with this breeze came tiny bits of salty sand blowing all over the place. There are a variety of colourful boats and huge stones where people sit, gazing at the gentle sea. Listening to calm music just adds on to the beauty of the beach.

There aren’t a lot of food stalls, but there definitely is one corn and raw mango stall, without which a beach is incomplete. This corn locally known as bhutta is roasted on the sigree and is flavoured with lemon and masala. These road side stalls give a different kind of satisfaction and has better food and gives a better experience than any big restaurants that we know of.

What could be more satisfying than watching the sunset on a beach? The ocean water, mirroring the sky colours looks serene and gives a very alluring view. I wish there was a pause button so I could watch this appealing sunset all day.

A day spent on the beach is definitely a well spent day! Being a Chennaite, if you haven’t visited this place, then you’ve surely missed on the nature’s aura.

If you’ve already been to this place, do drop in your reviews and if not this is surely a must visit!
