If you have more time, you can take a day trip to the nearby Kappil Beach, known for its serene beauty and sparkling blue waters. You can also visit the Anjengo Fort, situated on a hilltop, with a panoramic view of the sea. If you have less time, you can skip the Janardhana Swamy Temple visit and spend more time exploring the local markets and trying out different food options. Also, be sure to carry sunscreen, a hat, and comfortable shoes, especially if you plan to spend a lot of time on the beach.
