Kozhikode Beach

Kozhikode Beach is where the legendary Portuguese explorer Vasco De Gama first landed and discovered the Indian subcontinent. A discovery that led to various cultures finding their way to the shore and making the rich local cuisines of Kozhikode. So if food is your favorite thing (along with beaches), then heading to this place is the closest you can come to exploring culinary delish like Anthony Bourdain (rest in power, chef!) with ‘no reservations’.

Ponnani Beach

Ponnani Beach is located beside a small town overlooking the Arabian Sea. And the coastal town is famous for its mosques and temples, and the gazillion spiritual festivals that are held every year. Basically, everything about the Ponnani beach feels divine, including the scenic road trip (through Palakkad) that you’d have to encounter while traveling here.

Alleppey Beach

Alleppey Beach is all about the swaying coconut trees, the neverending rice fields, and winding rivers. And the iconic boat races that take place during the peak of the monsoon. You’ll find loads of backpackers and foreign tourists walking about this place all throughout the year. So yup, this is the kinda weekend getaway where you meet fellow travelers and make new friends along the way. And also, make your current friends jealous with a jaw-dropping Insta reel.

Kannur Beach

Kannur Beach is basically about three things. First, the super delicious flavors of the malabari restaurants here. Second, the dozens of architecturally sound temples around town. And most importantly, the picturesque surroundings which are perfect for a weekend date with your special someone. In short, ‘Eat. Pray. Love’, we guess.

Bekal Beach

Another famous beach in Coimbatore is the Bekal Beach in the Kasaragod district. And the golden sand beach is not the only prime attraction in this town tho. It’s got the awe-inspiring fortress of Bekal too. And yes, you’re gonna have much more fun here than just playing Fortnite with your anonymous online friends who’d rather trade a bus ticket to the beach for another bag of doritos.

Tuticorin Beach

The best thing about Tuticorin beach is its epic golden hours. The fishing nets, the colorful fishing vessels, and the flocks of exotic birds, all of these are what add up to its mind-boggling frame. And remember the 2019-ish trend of everyone buying polaroid cameras? Well, this is the perfect place to take your polaroid camera out from your Godrej locker and make it do what it was meant to do i.e add pretty pictures to the memory wall in your bedroom.

Poovar Beach

Poovar Beach is a must-visit beach in Kerala. It’s where the Neyyar river meets the Arabian sea. So it might have sounded like a hoax when your geography teacher back in 5th grade told you that ultimately all water bodies end up in the ocean. But this is where you can make your adult self come for a trip and prove your inner child wrong about their conspiracy theories. Just sayin’.

Snehatheeram Beach

As we already pointed out, Snehatheeram Beach is the nearest beach to Coimbatore. But just because it’s close, doesn’t mean it’s any less pretty than any of the beaches on this list. In fact, the Snehatheeram is the quickest way to curb your city blues and hop onto a hypnotic ride with your favorite novel cupped in your hands and your sore back lying on a beach mat.

Nattika Beach

If you’re looking for a serene retreat near Coimbatore, then look no further than Nattika Beach. Apart from pretty views, the coastal town is also lined with various Ayurvedic resorts. So if you ever wondered how your relatives travel to the south and come back healed from life-long ailments, then this is where the magic happens. But ailments or not, an ayurvedic spa near Nattika Beach is definitely something you should include in your self-care bucket list.

Munakkal Beach

If you type ‘Coimbatore near a beach’ on Google, the chances are, Munakkal Beach will not pop up on the top. It’s still one of the less explored and offbeat places on this list. But for all the right reasons. Take, for example, the beach has regular movie nights with a projector screening avant-garde films. Now, who doesn’t love the sound of that? Well, at least not anybody on our friend list.
