Tamil Nadu is known for its natural
beauty especially its blue beaches and clear skies. Some of southern
India's nicest beaches dot Chennai's long seafront, the Marina beach is
a 12-km long strip of fine sandy foreshore and is known as the 'Pride of
Chennai, the Covelong beach is quiet and far away from the distractions
of the city and the Elliot's beach is the preferred destination for
those with a clean atmosphere in mind. A short 20-minute drive from
Chennai City, VGP Golden Beach Resort offers a serene and relaxing
atmosphere in today's stress-driven world. 58-km south of Chennai is the
Mahabalipuram beach, famous for its unique 7th century Shore Temple.
