Cape Comorin is the historical English name for Kanyakumari.
It refers to the southernmost tip of mainland India, where the Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal, and Indian Ocean meet.
Today, the place is officially known as Kanyakumari, while "Cape Comorin" is mostly used in historical texts, old maps, and some maritime contexts.
