    NH17 - Kasaragod to Thirurangadi

    Part of my upcoming ride is on NH17 - Kasaragod to Thirurangadi.
    Looking for tips on places to stop, to stay, diversion to take, beaches to stop and also places to avoid.
    I have lots of time to cover this stretch to anything will help.
    Are there places where I can take take the bike on the beach?

    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

      hi

      stop by bekal(take the old highway from Kasaragod),taliserry,Mahe over the NH 17 for good views of the sea and if you are a foodie then stop by at Zain's restaurant-Calicut for a slice of mappila cruisine!

          Thanks for the tips.

          Can you tell more about the old highway? Looking at the maps (Bike Trip - 2 - Google Maps) I see only one NH17 marked.
          Bekal fort and beach is marked on NH15
          If I need to get on the old highway, where would I start?

            I don't think the 'old highway' is an NH-15.But i guess you have to travel into kasargod town and take a left near the Alukka's showroom that will take you onto the old NH-17(also known as 'Bekal road' locally) towards Bekal and later on to Kanhangad joining the NH-17 onward on your journey!

              well if you are having ample time to spend on your journey!.Then head over to Kaup lighthouse & beach(It comes a couple of km's prior to kaup town,you have to take a left from the NH),try out Malpe beach and st.Mary's island(Try some seafood at paradise isle its real yup!),stop by Maravanthe beach on the NH-17 for some amazing views of the sea and river on either sides of the road.
