Onambalam is a small inland fishing and trading harbour in Kumbalam, Kollam, India on the shore of Ashtamudi lake. With improvements in road transport its prominence has reduced after 1980s and now it is used as a fish market and a harbour for small inland fishing vessels. A boat race was organized from here during 28th day of Onam every year in the past but has not been conducted in recent years.
