Kovalam
Kovalam, Just 17 kilometers from Trivandrum, is famed for its three stunning beaches. The busiest, Lighthouse Beach, lies to the south, where the iconic Vizhinjam Lighthouse casts its beam across the sea each evening, adding a magical touch to the coastline.
Each morning, fishermen launch their traditional boats from Eve’s Beach, a charming spectacle that draws tourists. Nearby, Samudra Beach, separated by a rocky promontory, offers a quieter escape. A scenic sea wall walkway here treats visitors to crashing waves and breathtaking ocean views—perfect for solitude seekers.
Beyond its golden sands, Kovalam is a hub of Ayurveda and wellness, with beachfront resorts offering rejuvenating massages and yoga sessions. The lively local markets near Lighthouse Beach brim with spices, handicrafts, and fresh coconut water—ideal for a taste of Kerala’s culture.
Adventure lovers can try surfing, parasailing, or catamaran rides, while cliffside cafes serve fresh seafood with panoramic sunset views. The crescent-shaped bay ensures calm waters for swimming, making it a hit with families.
Kovalam’s charm lies in its blend of relaxation and vibrancy—whether you seek serene Ayurvedic healing, thrilling water sports, or simply the sound of waves under a starlit sky, this coastal gem delivers it all. A true paradise by the Arabian Sea
