    Here the beach is clean and the crowd is less, as compared to Kozhikode beach. Nice place to spend time with family and kids. Like other beaches in Kozhikode, you cannot go too far into the sea here. Here basic infrastructure/facilities is available like wash room, cafeteria etc... Also they maintain a small childrens park with basic equipments. Evening 6'o clock they arrange a water fountain for kids.

    Less crowded than Calicut and very near to city , varakkal beach is a good spot to spend time with kids and friends. Very few shops around ..which is one way better !! There is a park for kids with a few playing items like skating track and swing.

    Another side of kozhikode Beach where you can seat & relax in the evening time as it is less crowded when compared to the other sides. A lots of eateries are available by the road and also a small cafeteria is available. Toilets for both men and women is right behind the cafeteria. Weekends are not recommended for a relaxed visit as it will be over crowded. You may find difficulty in parking as well on weekends. The only way for parking is on the roadside, so please make sure that you park your vehicle safe within the parking area.

    I recently had the pleasure of visiting the beautiful beach, and I must say it exceeded all my expectations. It is truly a gem and an ideal place for a family getaway. The pristine sandy shores, coupled with the serene waters of the Arabian Sea, create a picture-perfect setting that will leave you in awe. What struck me the most about this beach is its family-friendly atmosphere. The beach is well-maintained and offers a plethora of activities that cater to both adults and children. There is a designated area specifically designed for kids, ensuring that they have a wonderful time while being safe and supervised. The children's area is equipped with various play structures, swings, and slides, making it a haven for young ones to explore and enjoy.

    Varakkal beach is a beautiful beach at Kozhikode which is a best place for enjoying with family in the evenings. It is almost clean and neat.

    No Maintenance at all. Lights are not functioning Fountain dance floor not at all working. This was renovated a couple of months back, but due to non maintenance many things are damaged. And the Car parking space is fully occupied by the local shops. Authority is not at all concerned about this. Pathetic.

    One of the coolest place to visit in Calicut. Calm environment unlike the main beach. A small cafeteria is also functioning near to it. Public toilet (paid) facility is also available there. Few minutes from the Calicut beach

    Beach needs cleaning a lot of debris and plastic waste near the park. Needs a parking area and restrooms.

  • 5/5 Athira B. 5 years ago on Google
    Just can say that the beach is beautiful especially the sunset. Not so crowdy. And one can sit peacefully in the park nearby the sea. You can bring kids here. There is vehicle facility here and parking too. Among all these goodness there is one such bad thing is the plastic. Otherwise it is all good for a perfect sunset

Whether you're looking to relax, take a leisurely stroll, or witness a breathtaking sunset, Varakkal Beach has it all. The nearby historical significance and local cuisine add to its charm.

  • 4/5 ashwin p. 2 years ago on Google
    Crowded in the evening, better to visit in the morning as it will be less crowded and getting a parking space will also be easier.

  • 4/5 Iamshajir 4 y. 2 years ago on Google
    After the renovation, people are flowing there. It's so rush and the beach and nearby facilities are really awesome experience. You can watch the exact crimson red sun setting and the beauty of sea is an aura. The vendors are many and you can get lot of food items. The children will relish the park area as it's stuffed with lots of rides and all and those are completely free to use. For senior citizens there are good seating arrangement. There is another track for skating as well. It's so rush in holidays and I will recommend to go out there on working days of possible.. enjoy an evening
