  1. Nice post. Opened to tourists only in the early half of the 20th Century, Kovalam is often dubbed as the 'paradise' of South India. Tall, green coconut trees and beautiful beaches will welcome you into the beach-city's fold, keeping up with its literal meaning of its name - "a grove of coconut trees". Explore all best places to visit in Kovalam also.
