Four major beaches in Krishna district, which were closed for visitors since the warning of severe cyclonic storm Hudhud, were opened on Tuesday morning, allowing visitors close to the sea water. Bathing was restricted at the four beaches viz. Manginapudi, Pedapatnam and Peda Gollapalem under Bandar police limits and Hamsaladeevi beach under Avanigadda police limits. <\/p>\n
Five days after the cyclone and unsafe weather conditions prevailed on the beaches, we have decided to reopen the beaches from Tuesday morning with precautionary measures, Bandar Deputy Superintendent of Police K. Srinivasa Rao told The Hindu. <\/p>\n
We have information that the sea condition had turned safe at the beaches and hence visitors are being allowed close to the sea, he added. Huge crowd of visitors from across the district were expected to throng Manginapudi and Hamsaladeevi beaches to have a glimpse of sea condition after the cyclone weakens on the coast in Andhra Pradesh. <\/p>\n
On the other hand, staff at the special beach police post at Manginapudi beach kept an eye on the visitors, restricting them from bathing in the sea to avoid any drowning incident due to rip current effect. On Tuesday morning, enthusiastic visitors turned out to the Manginapudi beach, observing the changes on the beach, particularly erosion of the beach near boat parking point. <\/p>\n
