Our Mission

TravelKannur.in was created with one simple goal — to help travellers discover the real Kannur. Not just the famous beaches, but the ancient Theyyam rituals, the misty hill stations, the serene backwaters and the extraordinary Malabar food culture that makes this corner of Kerala unlike anywhere else on earth.

Kannur is one of India's most culturally rich destinations, yet most travel websites give it just a paragraph or two. We believe it deserves much more. Every page on this site is written with genuine knowledge and love for this region.

We provide the only complete English-language Theyyam Calendar for Kannur, daily beach conditions, hill station trekking guides and authentic local food recommendations — content that exists nowhere else online.

Theyyam Kannur Kerala

Why Kannur?

Kannur — also known as Cannanore — is the cultural capital of North Kerala. It sits on the Malabar Coast and has been a centre of trade, art and tradition for over a thousand years.

It is home to Theyyam — one of the world's oldest living ritual art forms, performed in hundreds of temples across the district every year between November and May. Watching a Theyyam is one of the most powerful cultural experiences available anywhere in India.

Beyond Theyyam, Kannur has Asia's longest drive-in beach at Muzhappilangad, the serene Kavvayi backwaters, dramatic hill stations and the incredible Malabar cuisine that food lovers travel across India to taste.
