To the west of the Malabar Coast, in Kerala’s Kasargod District, is the small town of Bekal. With glistening waters gently washing against the golden shores is the enigmatic Bekal Beach, a favourite amongst visitors of all kinds. Bekal has always been famous for its beach, Fort, backwaters and the structures of significant importance in the area. And to top it off, along with the joys of a sun-kissed day spent enjoying the wonders of the beach, Bekal Beach has stories to tell from the past, and has been the setting for many happenings from decades ago.

Bekal Beach stretches across a vast expanse, offering visitors a picturesque landscape marked by golden sands and clear blue waters.  One of the main attractions of Bekal Beach is the Bekal Fort, perched on steep hills by the sea. The fort provides a commanding view from the beach and is constructed with laterite slabs in a unique polygonal shape. It is one of Kerala's most visited sites, drawing history enthusiasts and casual tourists alike. Visitors can explore the fort's historical structures, ramparts, and observation towers, which offer panoramic views of the Arabian Sea.

Bekal Beach is also known for its tranquil ambiance, especially during sunset when the sky is painted in hues of orange and pink. The vast, secluded beach area, crowned with palm trees swaying gently in the breeze…the feeling is most ethereal, and justifyingly so. It is a favourite haunt of tourists visiting Bekal, as the air of relaxation and calm is quite welcome after a day spent exploring.
