Rameshwaram tourist places

End point of the Rameshwaram, leading to the Ram Setu. Ram Setu is inaccessible now (or at least we were told like that), so this is the farthest one can go. A bit crowded, but everyone minding their selfies so crowd doesn't bother as they look for a quite corner for nice pictures. Nothing much to do except to enjoy the sea, the path leading from the mainland Rameshwaram to here is good, and one can sight lot of eagles, kites and gulls along the way. Plan to spend quality time here.There is not much else to do. Sandy beach is maintained well. They have a plastic checkpoint!! Clean compared to the other thirthams. The Sunrise is worth catching. Access to this place is from 6.00 am - 5.00pm only. 10 mins past 5.00pm, one can expect to be turned away. It lies at the tip of Rameshwaram where bay of Bengal and Indian ocean meet, is locally called as Arichal Munai. Strong winds were blowing on both sides and there are a lot of food vendors serving cut pineapple, cut watermelon, coconut water, ice cream etc. The water waves are strong and winds blow at high speeds. Lovely view. Dhonuskodi is about 25 km from Rameshwarom. Its wonderful to drive in straigh with both sides sea . Across the ocean is Srilanka . Tourists are allowed upto specifc time . As such there is no permanent shop . But temporary shops of icecream and fruits are available .In the western side there is 30/40 feet beach and in the Eastern side stony beach .Weather was hot and dry . There is no mobile link .
