Kaviti is a mandal in the Srikakulam district of Andhra Pradesh. The entire region is popularly known as Uddanam (Udyanavanam), which means “a garden-like land.” The name fits perfectly because the coastal belt here is filled with lush coconut groves, dense cashew plantations, jackfruit trees, and a wide variety of other fruit-bearing crops.
Kaviti is especially famous for its cashew production, with large quantities grown, processed, and exported to many parts of India and countries across the world. Along with cashews, jackfruit cultivation is also done extensively, making this one of the very few regions where jackfruit farming happens.
Kaviti is one such gem. While it has developed over the years, its true charm continues to lie in its rural ambience and long, peaceful stretches of coastline. With large bodies of crystal-clear water, soft sand, and soothing sea views, this beach is ideal for long walks, relaxed evenings, and calm, scenic moments away from noise and chaos.
Nearby beaches like Borivanka and the main Kaviti Beach remain pristine, untouched, and beautifully serene, making them perfect for an enjoyable, laid-back holiday. Whether you want to trek along the coast, explore natural backwaters, or simply unwind in silence, Kaviti offers all of it.
Kaviti is easily accessible by all three major modes of transport—roadways, railways, and airways—which is a relief for many travel enthusiasts planning to visit the town.
The Kaviti APSRTC bus station is located between the Sompeta and Ichchapuram APSRTC bus stations. APSRTC operates several buses from major cities to Kaviti.
Railways are one of the most affordable and preferred modes of travel in India, and Kaviti is connected through nearby stations such as Sompeta and Ichchapuram railway stations.

The word Chintamani refers to a precious and sacred gemstone often mentioned in Hindu scriptures. The Sri Chintamani Temple of Kaviti, also known as the Chintamani Ammavari Temple, is one such treasured place in the town. It stands as a landmark that the people of Kaviti deeply admire and take pride in for its spiritual importance.
Santhoshi Mata, known as the Mother of Satisfaction, is believed to be the daughter of Lord Ganesha. Young girls, especially around the age of sixteen, observe a special vrata on Fridays to seek her blessings. The Sri Santhoshi Mata Temple in Rajapuram is dedicated to this beloved goddess, who is worshipped for granting peace, and protection to her devotees.
