This is a bird sanctuary spread over a group of islands in an area dotted with hillocks in the estuary of the Kadalundi River, which joins the Arabian Sea here. This untouched littoral region is home to nearly 60 species of birds, of which many are winter visitors, who come here to nest and breed. The islands and birds can be watched from a 200 m high hillock nearby.
