Kovalam is a beach town in Kerala. It is 16km south of the city centre. Kovalam means "grove of coconut trees". It came to the fore when then Maharani of Travancore constructed a beach resort there towards the end of the 1920s. It is 3km away from the sea port of Vizhinjam. It is the site of a wave energy plant that generates power based on the OWC (oscillating water column) principle.
