Bheemili Beach - Visakhapatnam

Bheemunipatnam popular known as 'Bheemli', located at a distance of 24 kilometers North - East of Visakhapatnam. Its beautiful beach and invigorating climate coupled with the pleasantness provided by the lush green palm groves adds to its immense attraction.

The 24 km. beach road from Vizag to Bheemili is one of the longest beach roads in India. The sun-kissed beaches en route make the car/bike drive as enjoyable as the destination. Bheemunipatnam is located on a slope which just rises from the sea and presents a beautiful background of a sea scape. The town is situated at the confluence of river Gosthani and the Bay of Bengal. There is a big laterite topped hill dedicated to Lord Narasimha.

Being a sea-side resort and owing to its close proximity to Visakhapatnam city, Bheemunipatnam holds a rich potential for development. Once a Dutch settlement, the ruins of a fort and cemetery built by the Dutch are still seen. Remains of a round house close to the sea throw light on the Dutch architecture.

The beach at Bheemli is one of the safest for swimmers. This tourist resort is well connected by road from Visakhapatnam. City buses carry the tourists to Bheemli. Private taxis can also be arranged from Visakhapatnam. People can carry food packets or buy food at the small cafes at Bheemunipatnam. The drive from Visakhapatnam to Bheemli is exhilarating.
