There is a reason why Kerala’s beaches are among the most sought-after among travellers both from within and outside India. It is true that the shores are pristine, the waves are lively and there is ample scope for beach adventures. However, the amazing greenery that is a part of every shore is unique to Kerala. Ernakulam, a district with so many surprises for travellers, also gifts them the Cherai beach in Vypeen Island.
One of the most popular beaches in Kerala, Cherai Beach is considered to be a swimmer’s paradise. The waves are calm here and allows you to take a dip and swim in the sea. The backdrop is rich with coconut groves that stretch across the landscape, forming a cover of greenery. The shore gives you various interesting sights – like that of the Chinese fishing nets, more popularly known locally as “cheenavalas”. The beach is a nice choice for those who wish to relax, listening to the sound of waves and enjoying the majestic sight of sunset. If you are lucky, you could even see dolphins jumping over in the sea. The seashells that you find in Cherai beach are also considered special and those who wish to collect them will get some unique pieces for sure.
