Explore Varkala Tourism

Varkala is a coastal town in the southern part of Kerala, India, renowned for its unique 15m high 'Northern Cliff' adjacent to the Arabian Sea. It is known for its natural beauty, mineral springs, and its ancient Janardana Swami Temple, a 2,000-year-old temple which is an important Vaishnavaite shrine in India and is often referred to as 'Dakshin Kashi' (Benares of the South). The Papanasam Beach at Varkala is known for its holy waters and is a popular spot for Ayurvedic treatments. The beach is also famous for Vavu Beli, a ritual performed by Hindus on the new moon day of July to commemorate their forefathers. The natural scenery of Varkala is highlighted by the tall, laterite cliffs that hug the coastline, which is a unique geological feature on the otherwise flat Kerala coast, giving rise to a stunning landscape that attracts tourists worldwide. The Varkala cliff and beach attract many travelers and holidaymakers essentially looking for relaxation, yoga, and a touch of spirituality.
