Nileshwar North Kerala

Peaceful, understated, and wrapped in coconut palms, Nileshwar is one of northern Kerala’s best-kept secrets. A quiet alternative to the busier beach towns of the south, it’s a place to relax, reflect, and reconnect, whether that’s through Ayurveda, nature, or simply doing nothing at all.

Kerala Untouched

Be immersed in long and golden stretches of beach, fishing boats resting on the sand, temple bells echoing softly, and the nearby Thejaswini River winding its way gently inland. From quiet backwater cruises to visits to serene ashrams and traditional kaliyattam rituals, Nileshwar is a world away from the tourist trail.

Wellness and Slow Living

This coastal village is also home to some of Kerala’s most peaceful wellness retreats. It is designed for unwinding, not rushing, with yoga at sunrise, gentle Ayurvedic treatments, and long, quiet meals by the sea.

When to Visit

October to March is perfect beach weather with cooler days and sea breezes. April and May are hotter but still dry.

Where to Stay

This place offers several beautifully designed beach retreats and Ayurvedic resorts. Expect quiet luxury, local cuisine, and a deeply restorative atmosphere. Our favourite is the Neeleshwar Hermitage.
