Thick coconut groves and Chinese fishing nets on the waterfront are added attractions.

It’s the new generation tourist hot spot – Golden beaches, coconut palms corridors, backwaters, historical monuments.

Located 35 km away from Cochin, in the Cherai village of the Ernakulam district, the Cherai beach is amongst the must-visit places for anyone touring these parts of South India. Cherai beach is different from many beaches in the sense that it is very clean and shallow and thus, ideal for the purpose of swimming and sunbathing.

Thus, you will find many locals and tourists picnicking on the sandy shores of the beach, which stands surrounded by tall coconut trees and green paddy fields. Cherai beach is the golden beach of Kerala and is also famous by the name of ‘Princess of the Queen of the Arabian Sea’.
