POOMPUHAR BEACHES
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.
