Meenkunnu Beach, a serene coastal beauty, is nestled in the town of Kannur, Kerala, India. Named after the Malayalam words 'Meen' (fish) and 'Kunnu' (hill), this beach presents a stunning shoreline shaped by golden sand and bordered by lush greenery. Unlike the more commercialized Kovalam, Meenkunnu is relatively unexploited, offering tranquility and a pristine natural environment. Its relatively calm waves are perfect for both swimming and sunbathing. The local fishermenâ€™s activities provide a glimpse into the traditional way of life here. Surrounding the beach are arrays of coconut palms that sway gently with the sea breeze, which adds to the peaceful ambiance. Meenkunnu Beach is a part of the larger Thottada Beach and is just a few kilometers away from the Kannur city center, making it easily accessible. The beach is also known for its beautiful sunsets, where the sky is painted in shades of orange and pink, providing a picturesque view to its visitors.
