Puthuvype Beach

12 people recommend, 2 warn against itvia r/Kochi, r/Kerala·16 comments quoted below

What people say, in short

Puthuvype Beach on Vypin island is repeatedly suggested by commenters as one of the better beaches around Kochi, with one visitor praising its orange-pink sunsets and another recommending an early-morning walk from Puthuvype to Valappu as the most beautiful stretch in the city at that hour. The main caveat is crowds: one commenter says evenings and especially weekends bring heavy crowds, and a former fan says construction near the lighthouse has taken much of the beach and changed its once-calm feel.
