• Of Coastal eco zones along the
beachfront due to sea debris,
construction debris, disposals from
hatcheries, unorganized activities and
Lack of awareness
• Fragmented retaining walls & lack of
strong resilient strategy towards
coastal protection
Public health, Safety & Security
• Existing bathometry of the sea, Rip
tides, Coastal rock along the shore
(coastal geomorphology).
• Limited watch towers, effective
communication systems, monotonous
land use.
• Provision of basic amenities such as
toilet blocks and drinking water is low.
• Unsafe zones around vista points along
the beach road
Inclusive public realm is absent
due to
• Absence of disable friendly
environment
• Weaker communication regarding the
Do’s & Don’t on public beach
• Lack of dedicated community space
for interaction, gathering, children’s
play area, etc. especially for the fisher
community.

Beach front character gets affected due to-

• Limited physical and visual access between the beach and beach road
• Buildings/ structures hindering the view of the beach from the beach road
• Untreated water disposal in the sea via creeks and drains along with Sea debris
hampering the beach.
• Significant buildings along the beachfront remain obscure.
• The urban components on the beach are seen and function in isolation.
• Open defecation due to lack of amenities
• Fragmented green corridors and varying tree density
• Vehicular Arterial road character of Beach road

city / regional scale and Type B (Overall benchmark studies)
geographical or
environmental similarities with
the larger Vishakhapatnam
region.
A1. TEL AVIV PROMENADE, TEL AVIV, ISRAEL.
• Tel Aviv presents an interesting example of how the
city’s waterfront development, triggered by a singular
project, has evolved into an active public realm.
• The case study showcases that development of multi-
use and flexible spaces that allow free public domains
can greatly enhance citizen interaction with the
enriching spaces such as the waterfronts.
• Developing upon the existing assets and landmark, the
beachfront has evolved as the primary pubic realm for
the entire city.
• The development has been supported by a positive
policy framework that regulates site specific
parameters such as beach cleanliness as also the
larger issues of infrastructure resilience.
A2. DUBAI BEACH, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES.
• Dubai beachfront presents a classic case of reclaimed
beach development at an accelerated pace. The city
has experienced a marked change in its character as
the public waterfront spaces have seen rapid
development.
• The contrasting experiences that waterfront offers from
Marina to the beaches are tied by subtle design and
landscaping elements that integrate the entire stretch.
• The case study highlights that provision of basic
amenities, multi-purpose spaces and engaging
activities along with a uniform design framework that
guides the development along a long stretch of
waterfront are critical for development of an active
space.
• The provision of multi-activity zones at frequent
intervals help create multiple nodes on the waterfront.
This, complemented by changing land use along the
beach, helps in creation of an active realm featuring a
range of recreational activities all along the beach.
A3. WEST BEACH PROMENADE, BENIDORM, SPAIN.
• The West Beach Promenade in Benidorm gave an
efficient solution to the problem of density the city faced
on the limited beach stretch.
• The city wanted to enhance the engagement of daily
commuters and residents with the waterfront without
having to go on the beach.
• The edged view of the water and variety of spaces to
experience visually and physically with the multiple
access points provide opportunity of closer engagement
with the beach and sea to the interested users.
• The design works as an intermediary space offering two
levels – the upper level caters to city commuters and
residents who can meander along the seafront, while the
lower level offers boardwalks and access points for the
beach-goers. The projections on the built-up promenade
offer shaded pockets at the lower level.
• A well-lit landscape allows active beach zone after dark
as well.
A4. MALECON, PUERTO VALLARTA, MEXICO
• The development on the Malecon promenade has
taken a minimalist approach, where it provides a
continuous pedestrian and public space that can be
used flexibly.
• The design elements have respected the local cultural
styles and focused on providing the residents with an
active public realm. Given that the beach width is not
conducive for popular water-based activities, the
promenade has been developed such that it provides
wide open views of the sea and creates and
experiential space for everyday visitors.
• Further, the development has focused on the
ecological resources that the region has and has
developed tourism activities based on these. The case
study has a significant scope for further interventions
that can add vibrancy to the beachfront promenade
and provide for the year long active zones.
A5. THE PROMENADE BEACH, PONDICHERRY, INDIA
• Pondicherry beachfront is a case in point that
advocates minimal intervention. The minimalist
approach seems appropriate for a city like
Pondicherry which focuses on preserving its cultural
heritage and character.
• With a relatively small population base, the city
waterfront serves as an open, traffic free public zone
that can be used for varied individual and group
activities.
• The promenade is pedestrian friendly and flat making it
accessible for wheelchairs and differently abled. It is a
broad enough to accommodate people and various
activities.
A6. MUMBAI SEAFRONT AREAS, INDIA
• The waterfront redevelopment in the three case-point
locations in Mumbai of redeveloping the people-
space interface on the waterfronts.
• These cases present strong example of the urban
design exercise that connect the varied realms of
design, community participation and the governing
bodies. The plans respect the contextual relevance of
the waterfront, responding to the land use around the
specific case locations.
• This beachfront gives a new relationships and new
ways of addressing public issues may emerge from
such gatherings. This movement as not merely a
beautification program, but as part of a larger
democratic struggle for reclaiming public space, and
to create spaces where people meet, share their
experiences and begin to care about each other.
B1. GOLD COAST, QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA
• The Gold Coasts signifies balanced development on
the beachfront creating active public realm that
focuses on the needs of locals, while also offering
unique experiences to the tourists. It further brings in a
balance between development and the ecological
and environmental conditions.
• The long bike paths and walking trails connect the
entire waterfront with minimal interventions, offering
rich environmental experience to the users at the
same time. Site-specific interventions address the
localized issues that emerge from contextual
characteristics. The case study highlights the
importance of local interventions within a broad
framework plan for a larger area.
• The City invests heavily in managing and caring for
coastline, to keep beaches and coastal environments
healthy and protected by proposing different coastal
protection programs for dune protection, beach re-
nourishment projects.
B2. CANNES BEACHES, FRANCE
• The coastline of Cannes has been divided into five
separate beach zones. Each zone is a mixture of
public and private beaches.
• Swimming and other water based activities are
common on the Cannes beach.
• The Ministry of Health in France provides up to- date
information regarding the cleanliness of beaches. The
monthly testing and monitoring is done, which makes it
possible to assess the effects of wastewater sanitation
and dirty rainwater runoff into swimming sites.
• An integrated retail land use along with the
beachfront that also supports a pedestrian
environment.
• Developed shoreline with a regulatory framework, and
development of protection methods like breakwater.
• Promenades that provide a direct interface with the
foreshore and a wide choice of uses associated with
the coastal edge
B3. MALAGA COASTAL PATH, SPAIN
• This 180km project is under implementations stage,
once it is complete, it will become a one of the good
example of larger scale connectivity project
established between different cities’ administrations.
• The phasing wise planning is effective for such large
scale versioned project. Also, it provides a flexible
design which address different safety rules for biking to
incorporate with pedestrian linkage.
• The basic public facilities like toilet, showers, kiosk,
seating are also part of the coastal network.
• This trail is going to link some already existing
infrastructures, such as walkways, bridges, bus lines
and paths, and it will provide some new connecting
structures.
• Public plazas, promenade as well as beach access
have been installed with ramps for wheelchair
movement.
B4. MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, UNITED STATES
• The varied developments on Miami beach that cater
to multiple users present an array of examples of
place-making approach at a localized level that
addresses the character and issues in the immediate
surroundings.
• The city has been on a roadmap to recovery from
cyclone that had devastated the coastal areas, and
provides in-depth insights into a resilient, public-
oriented beachfront redevelopment
• Disturbing sea turtle nests, hatchlings or nesting
females is prohibited. Also, there are many linear
green parks between beach bed area and main
beach road, having different recreational. Different
characters Miami Boardwalk provides Safe and
supportive infrastructure for walking, biking, and other
nonmotorized means of travel.
