SurfTurf Cafe at Kovalam

Surf Turf at Kovalam is an ocean-front cafe overlooking the Bay of Bengal. It is an idyllic place to unwind to the sound of the waves crashing against the rocks while you take in the breathtaking view of surfers riding their boards and kayaks dotting the open blue ocean. The staff here are mainly locals and is another charming way to keep the community involved with the evolution of the surfing culture. The cuisine served is a fine balance between Continental favourites and delicious local dishes. The café caters to a wide audience from Chennai city dwellers to international travelers who have grown attached to a spot that they might never have heard of if not for the surfing revolution that started at Covelong.
