Green and beautiful, a little effaced by the historic Bekal Fort and beach, Chithari is still a virgin destination. The island is accessible only by boat, often wooden canoes that belong to the locals. A part of the Bekal Tourism Project,
this backwater area has all it takes to become a mega tourist destination. Getting there:
Nearest railway station: Kanhangad, about 5 km
Nearest airport: Mangalore, about 50 km; Karipur International Airport, Kozhikode about 200 km. |
