Yet another
beach resort created in memory of erstwhile "Kaveripoompattinam", a
legendary Port city, washed away by the sea. The present complex was designed
on the basis of the information available in the Tamil epic 'Silapathikaram'.
The historical happenings depicted in Silapathikaram and the land marks
mentioned therein are brought back to life here in stone. The Department of Tourism
offers conch and shell type accommodation here.
