St. Angelos Fort is a popular and frequently visited destination in Kannur. It stands on the shores of the Arabian Sea overlooking the enthralling natural harbour, Mapilla Bay. Built by Dom Francisco de Almeida, the first Portuguese Viceroy of India, the fort has an intriguing history. Many dynasties have gone through bitter battles in the quest to conquer it.
In 1663, the Dutch captured the fort and sold it to the Ali Raja of the Arakkal dynasty. Later in 1790, the British conquered it and used it as their army centre in the Malabar region. Currently, the fort is under the Central Archaeology Department. Walking around the majestic fort, one can find the tombstones of the soldiers who lost their lives in the battles, barracks as well as an old chapel. You can also check out Kannur’s first-ever lighthouse standing next to the fort.
Payyambalam beach
The impeccably maintained Payyambalam beach is highly sought after by tourists and travellers seeking a secluded location to just relax or enjoy a family picnic in tranquillity. The golden sand and foamy waves of the Arabian Sea form a picturesque setting to unwind and revitalise yourself after long and hectic work schedules. Activities like surfing and swimming are also available for visitors. You can reach the beach through a small crossover bridge built over a narrow canal.
Thalassery Fort
The Thalassery Fort is an ancient historical monument that was built by the East India Company in 1703. The major reason behind its establishment was to signify the might and power of the imperial rulers. The fort played a significant role in supporting the military and commercial activities of the British during their colonial rule in India. The enormous laterite walls, artistically carved doors, and the secret tunnels of the Thalassery Fort leading to the sea make it quite appealing to explore.
