UpvoteCommentThank you so much...and yeah I am a beach person
You can spend day one exploring the French Colony and Paradise Beach. On day two, I would highly recommend taking surfing lessons at Kallialay Surf School. From there you can go to Auroville. You can hire bicycle and roam around. It will be worth it. But if you wish to go inside the Matrimandir, make sure you register yourself beforehand. On day three, take a half day trip to Pichavaram which is around 76 kms from Pondicherry and hiring a private cab is inexpensive. Pichavaram Mangrove Forest is the world's second largest mangrove forest which is visited only by a few. Boating there is a surreal experience and you will thank me later.
