Explore the cliff that overlooks a beautiful beach. You can find many shops and restaurants here. A small path along the cliff leads to the Janardhana Swamy Temple, which is worth a visit.
The serene Kappil Beach with its calm waters is a great spot to spend the day, just relaxing and reading a book. Afterward, head over to the 17th-century Anjengo Fort, which tells a fascinating tale of colonial rule.
The Sivagiri Mutt is a serene ashram situated on a hilltop, with beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. Later, take a boat to Ponnumthuruthu Island, a hidden forest with a magnificent temple and is ideal for bird watchers.
If you have an additional day, take a short trip to the Kollam backwaters or the famous Varkala Beach. If you are short on time, you can skip the Sivagiri Mutt and Ponnumthuruthu Island. Alternatively, you can also hire a bicycle or a bike to get around and explore more efficiently.
