Beaches are the most important tourist attraction in Kerala. Though Kovalam is the most popular beach in Kerala, there are many other beaches which are almost as good. The long coastline lined with the swaying coconut palms and dotted with an occasional fishing hamlet is fast developing into one of the worlds best string of beaches. Though infrastructure is yet to come up in many, the advantages in those beaches are many, the most important being, less crowded. We have compiled a good list of beaches and have graded the facilities (or the lack of it) available at the various beaches.
