Symbolic

Vizhinjam Lighthouse is a symbolic location for many locals as well as tourists. With its new painting it stands tall and can be seen from far off.

Visit this to enjoy panoramic views over both beaches

Stunning views from the top, accessed by elevator. The lighthouse towers above the Arabian Sea for when you’re tired of the wonderful beaches here.

Beautiful, different, must visit

the 360 degree view from the top of the lighthouse is simply incredible.. not recommended for elderly or small kids/babies as there is a steep climb even after the elevator... otherthan that, its worth it..

One of the highlights (pun intended)

Well worth a visit. The wonderful surprise about this lighthouse, apart from the stunning views from the top, is that it has a lift, so you avoid the long slog up the stairs!

Worth to visit.

The 360 degree view from the lighthouse is some thing to bring back. In a hot day climbing up is bit tiring though. So be prepared!

Lovely place to visit

I often visit this place. The beach is clean. constant efforts are undertaken to remove littering. A serene environment.
