The next day, after checking out from Barefoot Resort (the checkout time here is nine in the morning but they allowed us the luxury of a late check out), we headed for the second beach called Vijaynagar Beach. This beach has almost all the resorts dotting all along its curve.
We selected the Wild Orchid for our lunch at the recommendation of our driver. The restaurant is called the "Red Snapper". When we ordered Prawn curry in coconut gravy and a Biryani, along with beer and coke, we had no idea what was in store for us. Both the prawn curry and the Biryani turned out to be the best I have ever eaten.
After the lunch we headed once again to the beach, our luggage in the safe custody of the front desk. This beach is not half as good as the Radhanagar beach: there are rocks dotting its shore line, which can become dangerous to navigate during high water, and there are too many people.
