About Marina Beach
You see the sea from the avenue and think you have arrived; then you cross the sand of Marina and recalculate the distance. The beach opens Chennai to the Bay of Bengal, with room to walk and take in the life of the waterfront.
Pick one stretch, because covering all of it turns a break into a chore. Bring water and treat the sea as scenery: swimming is prohibited because of strong currents. The breeze eases the heat but does not change the rule; the outing ends on the sand and the promenade.
