Mamalaporum

After a night in Chennai, which is a horrible city don't go there (!), we caught a bus to Mamalaporum about two hours south. It's a fairly touristy village with the dirtiest beaches we've ever seen, the Indians are happy to swim in the water and chuck all their rubbish on the beach, no bins here! Indian women and some men swim/paddle fully clothed, the whole family together.

Clarkie found the one person in the village who rented out a surfboard, the locals seemed to enjoying watching him on the board, which was covered in candle wax, no surf wax round here!

Clarkie and board are the white blob in the top right of the photo.
