About Vellikkeel Eco Tourism Park
Vellikkeel Eco Tourism Park, promoted by DTPC Kannur as Vellikkeel Park, lies in the Chera-Vellikkeel area at Morazha in Kannur district, Kerala. The setting is defined by river scenery and mangrove vegetation, giving the park an ecological character distinct from the district's coastal beaches and urban attractions. DTPC highlights the area's flora, fauna and birdlife along with opportunities to spend time beside the water.
Visitor facilities include places to sit and relax, swings, food options and boating, making the site practical for families without overwhelming the natural landscape. The approach and park environment are also associated with solar lighting, reinforcing its eco-tourism positioning. Vellikkeel works particularly well for travellers interested in quiet water landscapes, mangroves and local biodiversity, or for anyone wanting a slower picnic stop while moving between Kannur and Taliparamba-side attractions.
Its mix of wetland scenery and modest recreation makes it a useful nature-focused addition to a North Kerala tourism itinerary.
