ECR Stretches
I dont know how many of you know these places but if you drive by ECR and after Mayaajaal there is an entire line of small roads that lead to the beach.
Most of these small roads end with big bungalows and houses that are owned by rich people, cine stars and politicians and i guess they hardly come out of their houses since the doors are locked all of the time and there is not a soul around to see in these places.
If you are looking for isolation and would like to spend sometime alone with the wind on your face and sea and sand on your feet this is a great place.
However there are a few things to note. Local fishermen folks, some of them of the rude types may bother you if you are carring expensive things like camera’s, cell phones, ipods etc and its a bit unsafe to go alone there too. With a friend a sunday frisbee or a game of catch should be great at these places.
In fact i see a lot of couples come over to these places and a few NIFT and visual communication students who come here to do some photography and movie making.
Check it out if you are looking for something different, its sure a nice thing to give a try.
Interesting, as I have wondered about these places too.
Extremely prolific output! Can’t help but smile!!!
Aren’t these the same beaches that featured in ‘matter Dr. Prakash’s ‘ amazing indians?
used to visit these places often… but now after the tsunami… really scared to go. also the fear of thugs or petty thieves is also there.
