Andhra Pradesh coast
 
Description Not Available
Andhra Pradesh with a coastline of around 974 km
has frequently been affected by cyclones and
inundated by storm surges. Sea erosion is noticed at
Visakhapatnam, Bhimunipatnam and in the East and
West Godavari districts. Vishakhapatnam coast is
facing erosion since long specially at Ramakrishna
Beach. In 2013 and 2014, the cyclones ‘Phailin’ and
‘Hudhud’ further hastened erosion of the Ramakrishna
Beach, severely damaging the adjacent protection
wall and road. Uppada village which is 22 kilometres
away from Kakinada also faces severe erosion. The
Kakinada-Uppada road is gradually disappearing due
to shoreline erosion.
