Beaches Varkala

Varkaly beach is divided into two parts, between which is the source where the local people go for water:

  • south shore is a relatively quiet fishing village with several hotels and salons, located on steep slopes interspersed with the houses of local residents. The beach here is gentle and plays the role of a pedestrian zone, along which locals, cows and dogs walk. In addition, there are quite strong currents here:
  • northern shore of Varkala (Papanasam beach) is a full-fledged resort with many hotels and restaurants, shops and ayurvedic clinics. The beach is on a rock, so you have to go down to the water along a steep path. But there are always a few people here, and in the daytime there can be flocks of bright birds in the sun loungers.
