Chootad Beach – new one for the Beach Bums

Chootad Beach facing Ezhimala is an insanely charming beach

KERALA, INDIA: A glorious strip of sand hidden between a lake and a gentle sea, overlooking the mighty Ezhimala Hills. Chootad Beach is a rare geographical combination which looks more like a painting out of an artist’s fantasy than a beach – for beach bums.

The beach is located a few kilometres away from Pazhayangadi town in Kannur, Kerala. Yet to figure in the tourism radar and one can easily spend a few hours here in privacy.

This stunning beach also boasts a long, gorgeous coastline backed by Casuarina trees.

Chootad Beach isn’t just for the romantics. It is for the adventurous and those who just want to picnic around as well. The Tourism Council maintains a park next to the beach. For beach bums, there is nothing more fulfilling than walking through this pristine stretch. Watching the waves crash at the shore, taking a dip or just settling into the sands and staring at the magnificent scene struck up by nature.

Attractions: Ezhimala, 11 kms away, Kavvayi, 18 kms away, Valiyaparamba,  14 kms away, Ezhara Beach, 38 kms away, Madayipara, 6 kms away, Payannur, 19 kms away, Kannur, 27 kms away, Bekal, 6 kms away

Also: They say Kerala is a dream visit – perfumed air everywhere.
