Kovalam

Kovalam is a coastal town in Kerala, India, known as a beach destination with limited local diving. The closest diving access is typically via day trips to nearby coastal sites along the Laccadive Sea, with a small number of local dive centers offering introductory dives, equipment rental, and training. Water conditions can be warm with moderate visibility; diving opportunities in Kovalam itself are not a major draw compared to broader Kerala coast, so many divers use Kovalam as a gateway to nearby dive sites and coastal exploration.
