Kanvatirtha Beach - 4 Things to Know Before Visiting

Kanwatheertha Beach (also known as Kanvatirtha/ Batpady Beach) is the northern most beach of Kerala's coast in the district of Kasaragod. Located 30 km away from Kasaragod town and 3 km from Manjeshwar, this beach, like many of the other beaches of Kasaragod district is relatively unexplored.

The large pool formation

The large, natural swimming pool like formation at the beach called as the Kanawa Theertha is the major attraction here. The pool is void of harsh waves from the sea. However, we are not sure if its alright to swim in the pool/ beach  as the available information is limited. If you plan to do so, please check with the locals and make sure that it is safe to swim.

Views at the beach

The beach is bordered by coconut trees giving it a lush green cover. The beach(around 4 km in length) offering panoramic view of the Arabian Sea, with its sands basked in the sun and coconut trees dancing in its edges is a treat for the eyes. The beach is fairly clean and tidy owing to the fact that there are few visitors yearly.
