Anuvijay Nagar is a planned township in the Tirunelveli district, primarily built for the employees of the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant. The area gives a unique blend of modern industrial planning and the untouched nature of the Tamil Nadu coastline. Away from the bustling tourist tracks of Kanyakumari, this place provides a peaceful atmosphere for visitors. The nearby Chettikulam Anuvijay Beach is a serene stretch of coast, convenient for long walks and watching the sunset. Since it is a less commercialized area, the beach is often uncrowded, offering an authentic glimpse into Indian coastal life. The waters here are part of the Gulf of Mannar, a region known for its rich marine biodiversity. Nearby, visitors can explore local temples or take a trip to Cape Comorin. The gastronomy is characterized by spicy South Indian curries and fresh seafood sourced directly from local fishermen. Access is usually via Kanyakumari or from the Thiruvananthapuram airport.
