History:
Marari derives its name from 'Mararikulam,' a local fishing village. Historically, the area was an important center for coir production, and traces of this industry can still be seen. While not as commercially developed as some other beaches, Marari has gained popularity in recent years for its unspoiled beauty and peaceful ambiance. It remains a haven for those seeking an authentic Kerala coastal experience, away from the crowds.
