Vellanathuruth beach

Vellanathuruth is a beach in the northern suburbs of Kollam town in the state of Kerala, India. In fact, there is no beach to speak of. But at least it is sandy - unlike nearby rocky coastline. There are no trees. But there is some kind of sand dunes. It seems, that it is a semi industrial area. But all the locals feel free to visit it. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
