'''Veeranpuzha''' '''വീരന്‍പൂഴ''' is a [[lake]] in [[Kochi (India)|Cochin]], [[Kerala]], [[India]]. It is the northern extension of [[Vembanad Lake]]. From Kochi Azhi to [[Munambam]] Azhi, the Vembanad lake is popularly known as "Veeranpuzha". In the early 1980s there were regular ferry services from Munambam to [[Ernakulam]]. The area has large paddy fields devoid of human habitation.
Non-availability of fresh water is a reason for lack of dense human settlements. Veeranpuzha was also known as Kadakkarakkayal '''കടക്കരക്കായല്‍ ''' <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.mathrubhumi.com/ernakulam/nagaram/1.2419490|title = ചാത്തനാട്‌}}</ref>
