About Varkala Beach
Marari is also known as Mararikulam and is a sleepy fishing village, about
60 kms south of Cochin and even less from Alleppey. The Marari village is
placed away behind a line of dense palms that rise like a green munition of
the sands. Marari Beach is a pristine beach located between Kochi and
Alappuzha. Marari is marked by miles of clean sand, rustling palm trees, and
the sound of waves splashing on the seashore. The nearby coir making
workshops are another fascinating insight into local culture.
Almost untouched, there's plenty of space for you to have a memorable
holiday on Marari Beach .
