Kozhikode Beach is a prominent tourist destination located in Kozhikode (Calicut), a coastal city in the state of Kerala, India. Famous for its historical importance as the place where Vasco da Gama landed in 1498, the beach is a witness to the centuries-old spice trade. The shoreline here mesmerizes visitors with its lovely sunsets and the soothing sound of the Arabian Sea. A long promenade for leisurely walks, old-world charm with its colonial-style piers stretching into the sea, and the scent of salt in the air make it an ideal spot for relaxation. Kozhikode Beach is adorned with lush greenery and fringed by palm trees, offering picturesque views. This beach remains crowded during the evenings when locals come to enjoy the fresh sea breeze. The old lighthouse and two crumbling piers add to the vintage feel of the beach, and the nearby Lionâ€™s Park and the Marine Water Aquarium provide additional recreational options for families. The Kozhikode Beach Utsavam is an annual festival that showcases the cultural richness of Kerala through various art forms.
