Here we have brought five beautiful but serene hidden beaches of India where you will be able to relive your mind along with nature.

 
Butterfly Beach, South Goa — golden sands and hidden coastal tranquility.

On hearing the name of Goa, the picture of crowd, nightlife and colorful beaches would come to your mind but Butterfly Beach is completely different from that Goa. To reach here, you may have to resort to light trekking or boat, but in return you will get calm sea, dense greenery and secluded expanse of golden sand. The mild morning sunshine, presence of butterflies and the sweet sound of the waves refresh you from within. This is a great place for travelers who come to the beach to find themselves.

The most unique thing about Chandipur is that at certain times of the day the sea retreats several kilometers and a vast field of sand opens in front of the eyes. This scene is so rare in itself that the first experience becomes memorable. There is no noise here, nor long queues of tourists, just air, the smell of salt and a silence that calms even the restless mind. Watching the ever-changing mood of the ocean makes you realize that nature is miraculous in all its forms.

 Minicoy Beach, Lakshadweep

It is not just going near the sea but building a relationship with it.

This quiet beach of Kerala is beautiful in its simplicity. While strolling on the quiet shore here, you can feel the local life very closely.
