You could take the airport to Chennai Central bus at 5 pm, then hop on a 48 type bus to Mahabalipuram. That route leaves roughly every 45 minutes after 4 pm, so you’ll arrive in about an hour and a half. Chengalpattu trains leave only a few times before 6 pm, so a taxi is safest if you want to be there earlier. If you stay near the temples, the HAYATHI INN is just a few hundred metres away for a quick walk.
