Kottooliis a village within Kozhikode City Corporation of Kozhikode Districtof Kerala, India. The boundaries of this locality are:
*.East - Kozhikode Bye-pass Road
*.South - Puthiyara- Pottammal Road and boundary of Parayanchery Village.
*.West - Kanoli Canal
*.North - Chempra Thodu.
Though it lies within the city area, it preserves the typical rural characteristics. A vast water-logged area with out-growths of mangroves in the boundaries is situated in the north-western side of Kottooli. This wet land has attracted the attention of biologists and environmentalists of late. A few residential flat complexes soaring to height above 50 m are nearing completion in this area and the locality is a favourite among builders and developers. The area is being urbanised fast.

WETLANDS
The Kottooli wetland is the largest eco-patch in the Kozhikode city limits. It is interlinked with the man-made Canoly Canal which receives tidal influx from the Kallai and Korapuzha estuaries.
Originally, a part of this wetland with an area of about 87.04 hectares (215.1 acres) of land was used for rice cultivation. Of this, 22.5 hectares of land has been reclaimed for human settlement and the reclamation is continuing. A portion of the wetland has been proposed for development of the Dream City, with a view to making it a part of Kozhikode, a tourist attraction.
The portion of the wetland, now intact, is mainly on the eastern periphery of the Eranhipalam-Arayedathupalam stretch of Canoly Canal. Studies conducted by Centre for Water Resources Development and Management (CWRDM))and others have highlighted the efficacy of this wetland in the ecosystem of Kozhikode. It is a major receptacle of flood water from the city, a primary recharge source for wells in the vicinity, sink for pollutants including city and hospital waste and a rich mangrove habitat.
The Kottooli wetland is an ideal habitat for estuarine fish, prawns, crustaceans and molluscs, wetland flora and fauna including avia, fauna and the endangered Asian otter (Lutrus lutrus).
The wetland system has been subjected to degradation and loss of biodiversity owing to reclamation, pollution and human intervention, the CWRDM action plan highlights. It comes under the CRZ Regulation Zone I of CRZ Notification.
