Thanni Beach
One of the important beach in Kerala
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thanni Beach is a beach situated approximately 10 kilometers from Kollam City in Kerala, India.[1] Situated beside the Kollam Coastal Road, the beach is also accessible from both Kollam Beach and Mayyanad via the Thanni Bridge,[2] making it popular among locals and tourists alike.[3] Tetrapod breakwaters, locally called Pulimuttu, line the shore to reduce wave intensity and create a safe swimming area. Uniquely, a thin landmass separates the beach from Paravur Lake, offering visitors the chance to experience both backwaters and beachfront in close proximity.[4][5]
