Chandragiri is famous for its 17th century fort near Chandragiri river. The river was the border between two erstwhile kingdoms – the Kolathunadu and Thulunadu. The fort offers a breathtaking view of the river and the Arabian Sea. It is a vantage point to watch the sunset. There is a beautiful bridge over the river at Tekkil some five miles from Chandragiri.  Boat trips to nearby islands and palm groves are also available.
