Getting married is a beautiful transition from being single to entering a new phase of life as a couple. However, it may be hard to let go of the perks that come with being single – that’s why a rocking bachelorette party or trip is highly recommended for all brides-to-be. It’s the perfect way to celebrate friendships in a cool destination. Here, we have put together a list of unique hotspots you should consider for your bachelorette bash. Take your pick from beach escapes, haute historical spots, hiking trails and more.

Pondicherry lies a couple of hours away from bustling Chennai. This quiet little town has an unmistakable French connection and a charming vibe. The colonial buildings here, some of which date back to the 18th century, stretch along a grid of clean straight streets which open to pristine beaches. Visitors to this area are greeted by mellow hues of cream, yellow, pink and grey walls interspersed with flamboyant bougainvillea blooms bursting over gates and walls of courtyards. The quaint old cobbled streets lead to beautiful heritage stays that are a perfect setting for a memorable and relaxed bachelorette party.
