Top Nature in Chennai

Grab some local snacks from the beach vendors. I tried the fresh corn and it was delicious. Prices are reasonable and it's fun to snack while you stroll!

My advice is to bring your own snacks and water. The beach shacks can be a bit pricey, and you’ll definitely want to stay hydrated while enjoying the sun

Watch out for the tide! I didn't pay attention and ended up with wet shoes. Check the tide schedule to plan your activities better.

Check out the local food stalls outside for some authentic Chennai street food. I tried the dosas and they were amazing and so much cheaper than restaurant prices!

Don't miss the small lake area; it's serene and perfect for some quiet time. I nearly overlooked it but ended up loving it there!

I recommend wearing comfy shoes! The trails can get a bit tricky and you'll want to explore without worrying about sore feet.

If you like photography, go for the late afternoon light around 5 PM. The park looks amazing then, and you’ll get some gorgeous sunset shots.

I suggest visiting Panagal Park in the early morning, around 7 AM. It’s super peaceful then, and you get to enjoy the greenery without the crowd. Trust me, you’ll appreciate the calm vibe!
