Dolphins Nose

Dolphin's nose shape viewpoint is called the Dolphin's nose, which is 12 Km away from Coonoor and at a height of 1500 meters from sea level. It is a nice viewpoint and offers a superb view. Amazing Sunrise and Sunset views are also available from this viewpoint, in addition to great views of the deep valley and the long Catherine Waterfalls. It is one of the best places for nature lovers. You can take beautiful snaps because its surroundings and sceneries are excellent ones. Canyons are found on both sides of the spot. The best thing about the point is that Tea plantation and hairpin turns on the way. This unique place showcases panoramic views of the Tea Plantation in the hilly terrains of the Nilgiri hills. Dolphin's nose is one of the best viewpoints in Ooty because of the views of Catherine's waterfalls, Nilgiri hills, quaint villages unobstructed view, the ravines on both sides amazing sceneries around the point. Tourists can buy good quality and delicious Tea from Ooty Tea Factory. I would suggest visiting this place only if you have spare time otherwise there are better places in Ooty and Coonoor. Be careful about monkeys, especially when you have food items in your hand. It is Preferable to buy Tea from Tea factory in Ooty or Coonoor areas.
