Vaikom lake beach is an ideal place for an evening time with family or friends. It is very peaceful to walk along the walkway arranged there. The breeze from the Vaikom lake is very pleasing. There are benches arranged all through the walkway,which is a good thing. Everyone can visit the place irrespective of ages. There is lot of parking available in the nearby ground. There is space available for kids to play also in the ground. You could get Snacks and tea from nearby shops. Kites and different toys are available. There is a children's park nearby. There is no entry fee for the park. Kids could enjoy the park and elders also could relax by the lake side. There is a boat service available which is very cheap. It is a service boat. You could get a round trip and enjoy the lake even more. The Vaikom Mahadeva temple is also at a walkable distance.There are some restaurants also available nearby.The only thing I felt bad is the foul smell from the lake at certain points. Also the place could be a lot cleaner. People should be careful about not spoiling such beautiful...

Read moreNice place for evenings. A good promenade for evening walks, however need to maintain properly. Currently it open ended with no fencing for the lame shore at one end.

It seems they are arranging a food truck on a permanently fixed double ducker bus in...
