The village is mostly covered with coconut palms and cashew trees. Its western side edges with Arabian sea, while the east is separated by Parvathi Puthanar, a man made canal completed during the time of Regent Sethu Lakshmi Bhai of Travancore Kingdom. Access to National Highway (NH-47) and Railway Station is as short as 2 km and the famous VSSC of the Indian Space Research Organisation is close by. There are two man made hills - one on the south and the other on the north, which are believed to have been made during the time of Portuguese occupation of the area.
