Mangamaripeta Arch
One of the highlights of the Mangamaripeta Beach in Visakhapatnam is the natural Mangamaripeta arch which is a nature-made work of art. This arch has been created by marine geological activity and erosion that has taken place for the last 6000 years and more.
The arch is a part of the Mangamaripeta rocks which are part of the Eastern Ghats and date back to 800 to 1,600 million years. You can walk on this arch as the waves come and lash at it, only to go back to try again. Geologists have been urging the government to protect the arch which faces the risk of damage with extensive tourist footfall.
