Odayam Beach, Varkala Overview

Odayam Beach is a tranquil and relatively less crowded beach located just 2 km from the main Varkala Beach in Kerala. Known for its pristine stretch of golden sands and peaceful ambiance, Odayam Beach offers a more secluded and laid-back experience compared to the bustling shores of Varkala. The beach is framed by swaying palm trees, making it an ideal spot for leisurely walks along the coastline, sunbathing, or simply relaxing with the sound of waves crashing against the shore. Its calm waters make it suitable for swimming, and the absence of large crowds allows visitors to unwind in a serene environment.

What makes Odayam Beach special is its local fishing community. Early risers can often witness the fishermen heading out to sea or returning with their fresh catch, offering a glimpse into the traditional way of life in the region. For those interested, this provides an authentic cultural experience, as you can interact with locals and learn about their trade.

While Odayam Beach itself is not lined with major commercial establishments, it is home to a few quaint guesthouses, homestays, and small restaurants where visitors can enjoy local seafood and Kerala cuisine. Yoga enthusiasts also frequent the beach due to its peaceful environment, making it a favored destination for yoga retreats and wellness activities.
