Kappil

Kappil has become the most peaceful and folks friendly surf spot, among the other surf spots along Kerala coast. It will certainly attract not just the lovers of natural beauty of the sea but also the slow, progressing beginner surfers who appreciate long lessons and plenty of personal space. One of the distinctive features of Kappil is the calm, almost melodic quality created by its geography. On one side, the backwaters stretch quietly towards the horizon, while on the other, the Arabian Sea meets the shore with gentle waves. This meeting of landscapes not only creates a striking visual setting but also offers a sense of stillness, allowing surfers to focus on their practice without distraction.

Kappil is a perfect spot for beginners to start their surfing journey. Mainly, the sea here behaves softly and the waves are easy going. Moreover, when compared to other, far more popular places, the beach hardly sees any crowd. For these reasons, it turns out to be a great picnic for newbies who would naturally prefer less chaotic environments rather than the packed ones with people or very strong waves. Here, surfing is a matter of/only requires patience and you get to know what it means to surf, smooth take, offs without pressure, carrying the surfboard over a considerable distance of water, and catching the right moment of the wave to ride it, these simple things, in fact, become a part of the learning process within an environment that is safe and full of encouragement.
