This beach is regarded as one of the most sought after beaches of India. There are actually three adjacent crescent beaches separated by rocky promontories that together make up the Kovalam beach. The three beaches -the Lighthouse beach, Eve's or Hawa beach and the Ashoka beach - each has its own charm and individual attractions. You can roam around lazily, uncover the past, eat at the beach stalls and spend a lot of time indulging in water sports.
