Kanyakumari Beach is a popular spot to watch the sunrise and sunset. It is also where the three oceans - Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea, and Bay of Bengal - meet. Enjoy a walk along the beach and take in the stunning views. There are several food vendors and souvenir shops in the area.
Padmanabhapuram Palace is a magnificent wooden palace that was once the residence of the Maharajas of Travancore. It has intricate carvings, murals, and traditional Kerala architecture. The palace also houses a museum that displays artifacts and weapons from the 17th and 18th centuries.
The Vivekananda Rock Memorial is a memorial to the great Indian saint Swami Vivekananda. It is located on a small island off the coast of Kanyakumari and can only be reached by ferry. The memorial also has a meditation hall and a museum. The Thiruvalluvar Statue is a massive statue that stands at 133 feet, depicting the Tamil poet and philosopher Thiruvalluvar. The statue is located on another nearby rock.
If you have more time, consider visiting the Gandhi Memorial, the Suchindram Temple, or the Kamarajar Mani Mantapa Monument. For those who love nature, take a detour to the nearby Mathur Hanging Bridge or the Vattakottai Fort. If you have less time, skip the Padmanabhapuram Palace. Do note that most places close by 5 pm, so plan your itinerary accordingly.
