Good place for a peaceful outing. Not a crowded place. There is a beautiful sea bridge, which is now damaged and entry is not allowed. Good riding destination around city for pedellars. Not as good as Sanghumukham beach, but not crowded. As sanghumukham is cleaned up by the sea, this is a good alternative.

Sunset hangout place. Bridge, Beach and Sea provides beautiful view. Local fish market also nearby where fresh fish is selling by natives. Valiyathura church and port trust directorate are nearby.

Its my hometown landmark. Now its under threat of destruction. But thankfully the Government is taking measures to conserve the century old bridge which has lots of stories to tell. Lets hope for the best for a day to come on which public can enjoy the marvelous sunsets sitting on top of the Majestic waves

Valiathura is was a major port of Thiruvananthapuram city the capital of Kerala, India. It is one of the oldest port in India. This was once the only port along the South Kerala coast. When Kochi became the prominent port in Kerala, Valiyathura lost its significance as a major port. Now Valiathura is considered as a fishing port.

Valiathura Beach is located in Thiruvananthapuram.Its a nice beach to enjoy the beauty of sunset as well as to see the boat fishing procedure.There is a bridge extending towards the sea which is in a danger condition.Thats the main attraction. The entry to rhis bridge is reatricted now. You can also see a small fort nearby and lot of boats and fisherman.

Not good as shamghumukmham beach,But its non crowded.It have a long sea bridge(now under renovation-entry is prohibited). Thats the main attraction. Beach is narrow, no rest room, car parking is little difficult some times ,okay for spending sometime in evening

Its a nice beach and have a good scenery of sunset. But there has lot of drawbacks. Road to valiathura is narrow and congested. In beach, there is no entry to bridge for public ,I think only locals can enter there for fishing. Beach is not maintained well.

Childhood place (always!). (Havent explored much but would love to.)Valiathura Beach, a place to calm your mind.People are very loving, listens to your heart and soul.Though requires improvement in terms healthy gossiping, healthy eavesdropping etc. 🙃🙂

This is a place where locals are usually filled. You can see fishermen resting, playing cards and even boozing. The travelers are very less here. But this is a good place to catch the sunset. The bridge is under construction and it will be up in few days. Theres a church opposite to here and its really beautiful

Review №26

It is an historical place, bit hardly managed well to keep it intact. The bridge is in collapse.Best example to see how we value our own history. Also it gives a glimpse into our ways and means to address natural agression.India, is far behind other parts of the world in above maintainance.

Review №27

The access to the bridge is denied for visitors as they say it is dangerous to walk through the dilapidated bridge.the bridge is Used by the local fisherman to get onto the boat by jumping from the bridge during periods of intense winds and violent sea waves.one Could observe the lifes of fisherman preparing for the journey to the sea.

Being a native of trivandrum, I have been to this place quite a few times. But the one I would always cherish was on a full moon day, early before the sun rise. It was a feast to my soul to watch the moonlight reflection on the sea, near the ruins of the bridge. My phone camera could capture only .01% of what my eyes witnessed. It was a beauty, a real beauty. That was the only time I liked this beach.Thought the premises are shabby the sea is green and beautiful.The other attraction is the old bridge which is now totally damaged and entry forbidden for public. This beach is famous for its fish market as its a fishermens halting point. You can find fresh fish at a wholesale price.

Its a nice place to spending an evening or a early morning walk. Its near to the fishermen bay and you will often see fishermen at work. Valiathura has a broken bridge where you can get a good view of the sea. There is a church nearby. Its not a famous place which I would say is great enough to visit when you come for a trip from other cities. I would recommend this for locals for a nice evening walk or a early morning jog.

Review №59

It is unsafe for kids, elders and all. Public is not allowed and its dangerous. The beach without any safety measures like life saving guards, drone life guard, life boat crews Etc.., So Powerful waves, it may take the viewers into the sea in a second. Just we can enjoy the seashore by walk. Try not to visit.

Review №63

It is worth watching the waves from this Pier. The fishermen use this for launching their boats into sea and the catch is also brought to the shore through this bridge. But due to the age, the bridge is in a bad shape, posing danger if not proper care is taken. Entry has been restricted due to this reason
