The beach has two very old piers and a lighthouse which is worth a visit. Walk down to the tip of the old bridge found on the beach. Kick off your shoes and sit on the adjoining rocks and watch the spectacular sunset over the horizon. If you are lucky, you might catch a glimpse of dolphins out in the sea by the Dolphin Point in the far distance. Feel the fine water spray on your face and listen to the sounds of waves breaking against the rocks. Watch fishing boats battle the sea as they return to shore with their catch of the day. A truly magnificent place to visit, if you have plenty of time and nothing much to do!
Close to the beach is the popular Lions Park with good play facilities for children. You can also visit the Marine aquarium that is situated nearby. Food stalls do good business catering to families who frequent the beach and its surrounding attractions. Try the sea food delicacies like the Kallumakaya (mussels) which is the specialty of the region.
Kozhikode Beach is a favourite haunt of sunset viewers. Its natural beauty and old world charm makes it a dreamy place to visit.
The beach has an old lighthouse and two crumbling piers running into the sea, each more than a hundred years old. Children can be entertained at the Lions Park and the Marine Water Aquarium.
Should you be able to drag yourself away from the beach the city of Calicut or Kozhikode awaits you with its unique culture and other treasures
