Munambam Beach

Reading live conditions…

The gentle lapping of waves against the golden sand, infused with the subtle scent of the nearby fishing harbour, greets you at Munambam Beach. Located at the northern tip of Vypin island, where the mighty Periyar River spills into the Arabian Sea, this beach holds significant importance for coastal completeness, as noted by OnlyBeaches. Its unique position provides a dynamic landscape, blending the tranquility of a river mouth with the vastness of the ocean. The sandy expanse of Munambam is perfect for leisurely strolls and sun bathing. The waters here are typically calm and shallow, making it an excellent choice for families with children, who can safely splash and play. While not known for surfing, the gentle waves are inviting for a refreshing swim. The beach truly comes alive in the late afternoon; the best time to visit is undoubtedly during sunset. As the sun dips below the horizon, it paints the sky in a spectacular array of colours, a truly memorable sight that draws crowds daily. Munambam Beach caters primarily to families and those seeking a serene escape with picturesque views. Its proximity to the fishing harbour means a constant buzz of local life, offering a glimpse into the region's vibrant culture. A local tip: arrive early in the morning to witness the fishing boats return with their fresh catch, or visit in the evening to enjoy the freshest seafood from the nearby stalls, a true taste of Kerala's coastal bounty.
