Salem Travel Guide
India
Salem is a city in southern India with a population of 1,169,953. It is inland, so the city is not a beach destination and there are no notable beaches within 40 kilometres.
Most air travellers arrive through Salem Airport (SXV). For local sightseeing, plan around Salem itself rather than using the city as a base for nearby beaches, as none are notable within the surrounding 40-kilometre area.
