Kovalam has the reputation for being the most attractive tourist place in Kerala. Vizhinjam, a big natural port at Kovalam beach, has a great history as it had started functioning in AD 850. Kovalam was established as a tourist spot by the westerners in 1965, when hippies began to get banished from their own lands. The extraordinary blueness of the water, calmness of a lagoon, the boulders around the hygienic air might have been the features that had drawn them to this spot. Now people from within and outside the country frequent this place to relish the beauty of the beach and the wonderful landscape
