Kovalam
Morning after breakfast drive to Kovalam.Spend the entire
day discovering the beauty of the town.Kovalam" means a
grove of coconut trees and true to its name the village offers
an endless sight of coconut trees. The crescent-shaped
beach has three parts. The southern most beach, and the most popular, is
light house beach. It offers an amazing sight of Vizhinjam mosque. The
northern Samudra is a laidback one and time seems stands still here. The
middle, hawah, in the early day, is a beehive of activities with fishermen
setting out for sea. With a high rock promontory and a calm bay of blue
waters, this beach paradise creates a unique aquarelle on moonlit nights. It is
warm and clean filled with the coconut trees and the white sandbed as the
seabreeze gently plays with the waves. Swimming and bathing are very
refreshing and exhilirating in the waves. One can walk into the sea for about
100 metres without loosing ground. This cove is also the safest place for
swimming. At many coastal places there are beautiful patches of coral reefs.
The underwater views, which are visible during snorkeling, are really
marvellous. Azure water and favorable climate make Kovalam a favorite year-
round spot for swimming. Sea here is pacific and shallow where you can take
a dip in the saline waters. The clean white sandy beach will arouse a
temptation irresistible: to lie idle on the sands and tan your body.You could
get into any of the Ayurvedic massage centre and indulge in a rejuvenating
herbal, body-toning massage and holistic therapies.Highly commercialised
and very crowded through most of the year, Kovalam manages, against all
odds, to retain much of the charm which made it a popular beach in the first
place. Surfing and swimming are among the other water sports possible in
Kovalam beach.Many people from di fferent countries and cul tures,
interminlge with each other and get together in this paradise of the South and
spend their leisure time joyfully. Overnight stay at hotel.
