  • Keep a compact umbrella or rain shell handy since sudden showers are expected during your three-day stay.
  • Dress modestly with shoulders and knees covered when visiting the Palakkunnu Kazhakam Shree Bhagavathi Temple.
  • Hire local auto-rickshaws for affordable mid-range transit between the beach, fort, and temple highlights.
