Dolphin's Nose Lighthouse

Clifftop lighthouse area on the headland guarding Visakhapatnam's harbour.

Dolphin's Nose is the blunt headland that helps define Visakhapatnam's harbour, and the lighthouse area gives a strong sense of the city's relationship with the sea. From the heights, the coast, port, and naval landscape fall into place.

Access can vary because of port and security controls, so check locally before making a special trip. When reachable, it is best combined with other southern coastal stops rather than treated as a full outing on its own.
