Vypin Fishing Village
Vypin Island, an elongated strip approximately 27 km in length and less
than 2 km wide at its broadest point, is linked to mainland Kochi via a series of bridges and
local ferry services like Jankaar. Known for its picturesque beaches, Cherai Beach at the
northern tip stands out for its golden sands and clear blue waters, offering a blend of natural
beauty, local culture, and historical significance. Vypin Island is a popular destination for
ferry tours, fishing activities, coconut groves, lagoons, backwaters, and seafood farms
including prawns and crabs. The iconic Vypin Lighthouse, dating back to the 1970s and located at
Puthuvype Beach, features an elevator providing panoramic views of the sea.
Various casual dining options across the island serve traditional Kerala cuisine.
