Recently visited to Kannur with family and was mesmerized to see its eco-friendly services provision meant for all types (generations) of customers.  The Muzhappilangad drive-in beach is at its best, well maintained and following the sustainable practices. The Kavvayi Island is unique with a private beach where one can see tiny fish flying/ hopping. Here the government boat services are available which have some specific timings, one needs to enquire and book before visiting.

The local people are fully aware about their responsibility as citizens to maintain the beauty and sustainability of the spot apart from being friendly and supportive to tourists.
