The surrounding area of Radisson Resort Pondicherry Bay is in the famous Arikamedu archaeological site which dates back over two thousand years. Once an Indo-pacific site trading city on the banks of the Ariyankuppam River, Pondicherry is now a tourist favorite thanks to the endless stretches of unspoiled beaches, quaint colonial heritage buildings, and special Franco-Tamil ambiance.

Enjoy a day of watersports on Paradise Beach or wander along the wonderful Promenade Beach to see key statues, as well as the French War Memorial. Spend an afternoon in the charming White Town, known for its quirky cafés, upscale restaurants, and French colonial-era villas lining its leafy streets. Be sure not to miss a visit to the dome-shaped sphere of Matrimandir for a memorable meditation experience.
