Saddam Beach
Kerala, India
Saddam Beach is a small fishing village along a 2-km coastal stretch between Puthenkadapuram and Kettungal in Parappanangadi, Malappuram district, Kerala, India, predominantly home to a Muslim community.
Named after former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein in solidarity during the 1991 Gulf War—originally called Tipu Sultan Beach—it became a focal point for local protests against U.S. actions, including after his 2006 execution, with villagers displaying supportive signs and avoiding American products.
Accessible near Parappanangadi railway station and Kozhikode airport, it offers a quiet, scenic shoreline for basic beach activities amid its unique historical naming tied to global events.
