Pallithode is a village in the Alappuzha district, in the state of Kerala, India, on the shores of the Arabian Sea.[1][2] Pallithode is within the Gram Panchayat of Kuthiathode,[3] Pattanakad Block,[4] of Cherthala Taluk. During the 20th century, more than half of its width was eroded away by the action of river backwaters and the sea. The village is very densely populated and has a wet, maritime tropical climate. It has an important role in the fishing industry.[citation needed]
