Must-see attractions

Heritage Museum of Kattankudy

　　This fine new museum plunges deep into the history of Muslims and Arab traders locally. Spread over three floors, it tells a compelling story about centuries of culture through models, displays, recreations, artefacts and more. The English-speaking staff are very happy to show you around. ...

Mahatma Gandhi Park

Kallady & Navalady Peninsula Beach

　　This long beach follows the peninsula all the way north to the end. The swimming is usually good. With a bike, you can explore the beach, which has access at numerous places from Navalady Rd. Some areas have more shade than others. ...
