Kannur- Lesser Known Travel Destination
If you are looking for a quiet time with family or friends then head south to the much less travelled and almost unexplored city of Kerala, Kannur. This place came into news recently for political clashes between left and right wing. You can take a road trip to Kannur from Bangalore or directly land at Kannur airport. You can get decent hotels at very reasonable rates and delicious south Indian food as well.
If you are an early riser, then give yourself a morning treat by visiting the Payyambalam Beach which would probably be less crowded at that time and you can catch a nice morning breeze on its long stretch of sand.
