Place : Ayiram kal poli mugam ( Ganapathipuram) , Kanyakumari District

As you reach Ganapathipuram ask the locals about the beach.
It will be a sure delight if you have a penchant for
impossibly blue seas, pristine white sands and coconut trees
'Poli ' means Estuary. This is one of the places where the Water from Pechiparai Dam flows in to the Arabian Sea after irrigating many fields.
The vast emptiness of the beach and the striking lack of crowd is an enjoyable one.
Palm wood stage perfectly in synchronous with the environment
The Palm wood Stage and the palm wood Bridge erected by the
district authorities is a perfect one and suites the ambience .
Way to Heaven waiting for us

Beach Casa - 2
Arabian sea shimmering under the fiery sun
Beach always beckon
Coconut trees at dusk
Mesmerising
Beach casa could have qualified as an ideal place for surfing and sun bathing. But then due to lack of publicity and inadequate hinterland development, the place is losing its importance .

Take the left one and travel (about 2 Km) till the end of the road.

A Kali temple situated by the side of the stream attracts devotees
on Tuesdays and Fridays. During the Tamil month of Adi women come
to the temple on Tuesdays and Fridays and prepare Kozhukkattai
