Kovalam Beach

Location : Kovalam

The beautiful and calm Kovalam Palm Beach have been a hot favourite amongst the tourists since 1930s. Kovalam is small village, situated on the Malabar Coast along the Kerala shoreline. Kovalam means a grove of coconut trees and truly the coconut trees along the beaches gives it a ravishing look. This quiet town of Kovalam came on the tourist map, when its beautiful and secluded palm beaches were discovered. Today Kovalam has become one of the most popular beach hangouts in India. Kovalam palm beach is equally famous in the international tourists as among the Indian tourists. A massive rocky promontory on the beach has created a beautiful bay of calm waters, ideal for sea bathing. The Arabian sea coast at many places is lined with beautiful patches of coral reefs.
