We recommend to pay a visit in month of Feb and March get most out of it. Water level will be good and weather will be pleasant.

6) Butterfly Beach

This beach is explored due to accessibility is very limited to it. Earlier we had to take a boat to reach this place but not you will be able to reach here after a good trek. Since way to beach is covered with dense forest so vehicles will not be able to reach here. Boat charges will vary in seasons but starts Rs1000 for complete trip. You can spot dolphins, carbs and mostly varieties of butterflies that's why it's called butterfly beach. White sandy beach with clear water makes a perfect combination to visit this place.
