BEKAL Bekal fort, 14 km away from Kasargode, is the best preserved fort in Kerala. The seashore fort along with its premise is being designed into a major tourist resort. The fort, in its domineering position on promontory, offers a panoramic view of palm-fringed beaches on both flanks. Shrubby hill slopes down from the fort to rugged rocks before engaging itself with a tête-à-tête with the frothy sea. A sauntering inside the fort would transport to the battle days when rival forces fought for wresting the fort, then a vantage position on Western coast. A Navel academy is nearing completion at Ezhimala, in Kannur near Bakal. |
