Tourism authorities have stepped up efforts to promote Kappad Beach, the historic site where Vasco da Gama landed in 1498. Recent initiatives focus on cleanliness drives, better facilities for visitors, improved walkways, and heritage interpretation boards highlighting the area’s global historical importance. Local tourism groups are also encouraging cultural programs and guided walks to enrich visitor experience. These measures aim to position Kappad not only as a beach destination but also as a heritage tourism hotspot in Kozhikode.
