Azhimukham (Mahe River Estuary)
Azhimukham is the estuary where the Mahe River (Mayyazhi River) meets the Arabian Sea at Mahe, an enclave of the Union Territory of Puducherry surrounded by Kerala. The site features a sandy river-mouth beach, fishing harbour, mangrove patches and a long breakwater walkway. It is notable for scenic sunset views, birdlife, and as a tranquil natural landmark marking the historic boundary of former French Mahe.
