    Beautiful place to spend time with your loved ones here. Utterly peaceful and a place to view one of the best sunsets of your life. The Grand Hyatt in the background of the setting sun makes a perfect place for photography. There is a small entrance to this place and there is officially no parking but people park their 2 wheelers anyways. The actual place is extremely clean and well maintained. Nice place to bring your family for a walk during sunset time.

    Very nice walkway. Calm atmosphere and clean place. It's recently renovated in a good way. It's not heavily crowded like old Marine drive. Best time to spend is during sunset. Many kuluki shops are located on walkway entrance. Parking space available on roadside.

    New face of Kochi. This place has renovated surprisingly superb. The place has elevated to the perfection of a European walkway. This is a perfect place for morning walk. There is an open gym with proper equipment. You can see ships and boats from this place. In the evening, you can enjoy astonishing dusk from here. This is a perfect place for an evening visit with friends and melt in calmness.

    The change this place has seen is amazing. It's almost too good to be true. It's super clean, it's super green and we'll laid out. The walk way is simply beautiful. The pavements and lights are a sight to behold at night light. This is a very good place to spend some time in Kochi.

The most famous among them is the Cochin Carnival, which is a ten-day-long event that takes place in December, culminating in a grand procession on New Year's Day. Overall, Marine Drive is a serene and picturesque location in Kochi and a must-visit destination for tourists. It offers visitors a chance to experience Kochi's beautiful backwaters and soak in the laid-back culture of the city.

    There is a better lighting and neatness compared to old portion of marine drive. But better not visit the place during night or peak hours, since it is overcrowded and filled with intoxicated people. It's very high time that corporation should ensure security to people visiting the marine drive.

    Marine Drive is an excellent location for spending your evenings and is equally suitable for morning walks. It offers a free open gym for public use, without any charges. However, parking can be a bit challenging. The area provides boating facilities, and you can also enjoy water metro travel. Additionally, there are numerous food and beverage options nearby. Overall, Marine Drive is a perfect destination for a peaceful weekend getaway.
