KOZHIKODE BEACHES ··»

Beypore
(10 km south of Kozhikode) Located at the mouth of the Chaliyar rive, Beypore, one of the prominent ports and fishing harbours of ancient Kerala was an important trade and maritime centre. Ancient Beypore was much sought after by merchants from Western Asia, for its ship building industry. The boat building yard here is famous for the construction of the Uru, the traditional, Arabian trading vessel.

Kappad
(16 km from Kozhikode) This is the historic beach where Vasco da Gama landed on the 27th of May, 1498 with 170 men in three vessels. The rock studded beach is locally known as Kappakadavu. An interesting feature of the landscape is the sprawling rock that protrudes into the sea. The temple on the rock is believed to be 800 years old.

Thikkoti Lighthouse
