About Kozhikode Attractions

A serene little coastal city in Kerala, Kozhikode, also referred to as Calicut, is a popular tourist destination of the state. Although not very popular among regular tourists, it is well on its way to becoming one of the most sought after places to visit in Kerala thanks to its sublime beauty and rich culture and heritage. Kozhikode tourism is all about sun-kissed beaches, family picnics, heritage monuments, delicious seafood, scenic parks, twisting pathways and much much more.

This Kozhikode travel guide is the ideal way to gain knowledge about the destination before reaching there. From historic monuments to shopping destinations, from party hubs to religious spots, from local cuisine to high-end restaurants, from serene beaches to fragrant spice gardens, from wildlife sanctuaries and national parks to view points that offer the best view of a sunset, all that a traveler needs to know about Kozhikode is part of this Kozhikode travel guide.

Talking about tourism in Kozhikode can’t be done without a talk about the spices available here. Kozhikode used to be known as the “City of Spices” in the Middle Ages, thanks to the acres and acres of fragrant forests and gardens of spices. An important spice trade center, Kozhikode soon became a household name. To this day it is said to be one of the best places to visit for purchasing spices.

There are plenty of places to visit in Kozhikode, including the much acclaimed Kozhikode beach, which houses numerous seafood shacks, small shops selling knick knacks, an aquarium as well as a sizable playground for children. It is a favorite destination among those looking to spend some quality time with their family or friends. Another favorite beach for families in Kozhikode is Beypore Beach, where visitors can also enjoy a few beach games. The Mananchira Reservoir is another great place to spend a couple of hours in quiet contemplation.

When talking about Kozhikode, can Kadalundi Bird Sanctuary be far behind? It is the ideal habitat for hundreds of species of birds, fishes, and crustaceans among others. It is actually built on several small islands, with a slew of connecting lagoons and deltas making it an accessible and fun place to visit.

All in all, Kozhikode tourism is a good way to bond with the beauty of nature in Kerala, as well as enjoy some lip-smacking delicacies, visit a few temples, soak up the sun on a few beaches, and partake of a relaxing holiday.

    The overall experience was great. The stay was comfortable and beautiful. The driver took us to places that were in the itinerary. There was an issue with the drivers working hours, there was a day, when we wrapped up everything before 7, n we had ample amount of time, which could have been utilized
    , but since the driver didn't want to go, we did not go out.

From the very first inquiry, kiran, representative of For you travels, was quite responsive and supportive, making the planning process easy. The itinerary finally agreed was post in dept discussion with scope of minor chan
    ges during the trip. Itinerary was perfectly balanced. The guide cum Cab allocated was very supportive ensuring we visit all the major sights while still having time to relax and explore at our own pace.

    Raju's 6 days trip to Kozhikode

    After booking, Mr Alan said to me that room category is not available and upgraded to new room with high price. I agreed to pay extra amount, However, when I was in hotel, it was not upgraded, it was downgraded with high price. I was cheated here. After booking, It in not my problem but you behaved
    unprofessionally. You charged me extra amount after booking that is very unprofessional. 2. For rest amount to pay no communication by Alan & message sent for paying when I was in flight. After landed to Trivandrum and on-boarded in taxi, You welcome me in Kerala like you and your system like terrorist group and rush to all payment in minutes otherwise taxi will be parked on highway and will not move till the payment. It was a pathetical behavior I ever seen from professionals.

    Harshavardhan's 5 days trip to Kozhikode

    Testimonial for 'Book It Forget It' & TravelTriangle "The overall trip planning and support from 'Book It Forget It' was awesome, especially the service from Sahil Vij. He was incredibly responsive and took quick action on my last-minute request to arrange a new houseboat with a bigger bed to comfor
    tably accommodate our family. The booking process through TravelTriangle was also fantastic; Soujanya Rai and Neha helped us finalize great options and supported us well throughout. I highly appreciate the 3-installment payment option—it really builds trust between the customer and the agency. The payment flexibility extended to our cab service as well, and our driver was a genuinely good person who was always ready to help with our luggage. Thank you for the great support!" Best Memories of the Trip The Houseboat Experience: Cruising for a full day on the Kerala backwaters was incredible. We enjoyed the ride immensely, and the larger bed accommodated our family of four perfectly. Chef Bino's Cooking: The food on the houseboat was an absolute highlight! Chef Bino was fantastic and truly made our day by cooking awesome, high-quality meals for us. Cliffside Views in Varkala: We enjoyed a lot of our time in Varkala, especially staying at the Wood House Beach Resort right on the cliff side. The views and the atmosphere there were unforgettable.
