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.
