About Baruva Beach
A quiet beach in the far north of Andhra Pradesh where the Mahendratanaya river meets the sea, about 110 km from Srikakulam and 10 km from Sompeta. The shore is lined with coconut and casuarina groves and there are two old temples, Kotilingeswara and Janardhana Swamy, in the village. The sea has strong currents, so treat it as a place to walk and watch rather than swim.
What to see and do
- River mouth of the Mahendratanaya
- Kotilingeswara Swamy temple
- Janardhana Swamy temple
- Coconut and casuarina groves
