The 15 kilometers (9.3 miles) long beach is great for jogging, walking and enjoying the bounty of nature.

Food at Cheari Beach


Do not miss the fresh seafood. Butter roasted tiger prawns and a local preparation called 'Karimeen Pollichathu' are a must. Crabs and wide variety of fish are also on offer.

For veggies, you will find many stalls and specially you must not miss the "Chilly Bhajis" with chutney. I loved it a lot.

Best season to visit is all throughout the year except the rainy season (June - October). One of the main events in Cherai Beach is the Tourism fest during December.
