The saddest part of the story is that Marina Beach is now crowded with hawkers and vendors selling local food and juices. But, it was once a fascinating stretch of sandy beach, an unexplored and unspoiled romantic tourist attraction in Chennai. The hawkers are really spoiling the scenic beauty of Marina Beach and it becomes difficult to keep it clean all the time by the local government as it has already been mentioned that this is the second largest beach in the world. But, a major portion of the tourists love the beach crowded with hawkers and vendors as they get a chance to taste lots of attractive food while they enjoy a walk on the beach. According to them , the hawkers make the environment more lively.
Marina Beach suffered a lot when tsunami struck the southeastern coastline of India and the giant waves caused damage to life and property especially to those who live very near to this stretch of sea beach. Thus, Marina Beach has along history but nothing could actually spoil its significance as far as the tourist attractions in Chennai are concerned.
