Kerala Tourist Destination

You will dream of a romantic escapade along the waters of River Thames, but that is until you have been on a cruise along the magical backwaters of Kerala! The more intertwined and convoluted they are, the more is the fun and adventure packed within; it’s true that world is yet to witness a wonder that can beat the charm and beauty of Kerala backwaters.

With a fame that has traveled far and wide, Kumarakom has the much eulogized backwater arteries in Kerala. Situated against an enchantingly baroque backdrop, this emerald peninsula is breathtakingly green, incredibly stunning and undeniably attractive, bordering the ever buoyant . Sometimes widening and sometimes narrowing, backwaters at Kumarakom own a plethora of flora and fauna that adds on to its rich marine life.

Indulge in the festive vista of swaying coconut palms edging the labyrinthine of waterways, while sailing in Houseboats, or ‘Kettuvallams’ as the natives speak! Hire these floating giants for a day or two; let the radiant mornings gift you the sight of brilliant countryside and let the nights unwind you in tranquility and solitude, when the houseboats anchor amidst the placid lakes.

For all bird-watchers out there, Kumarakom is truly a bliss; while exploring Kumarakom backwaters, take time to stop by Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary for the rare vista of migratory birds. The golden yellow island, Pathiramanal, is also in and must not be missed.
