Kerala Backwaters & Beaches

No, it's not Venice! Although Venice is dotted with one of the finest waterways in the world, but the perfect blend of Kerala backwaters & the divine greens is one such magnetic element that beats Venice. So plan an unforgettable journey to God's own country – Kerala. Serving as a green paradise in the southern belt of India, Kerala is a dream land when it comes to rejuvenating holidays, honeymoons or adventure vacations. Relaxing on a luxurious houseboat and exploring serene backwaters in Kerala is one such activity that you will hardly find anywhere in the world. Moreover, the water activities that you can try here (parasailing, scuba diving, water-scootering etc.) are again the rarest in the world.

Over 900 km long coastal belt, 44 picturesque rivers and traditional Kettuvalloms (houseboats) altogether let you enjoy the spotless natural beauty of the Kerala backwaters. All the destinations that serve as a home to Kerala backwaters or picturesque Kerala beaches are a unique mix of historic and modern towns. Some of these highly frequented destinations in Kerala are:

• Cochin
• Alappuzha (Alleppey)
• Kasargod
• Kollam
• Kottayam
• Kumarakom
• Kozhikode
• Kuttanad
• Thiruvallam
• Thiruvananthapuram

Once you sail in your luxurious houseboat, across these marvellous destinations, you will experience no stain but the spotless beauty of Mother Earth; you will hear no honking & traffic but the sweet murmuring of waves & chirping of birds; you will feel no stress but the whisper of cool wind.

Along with these relaxing activities, you can enjoy a number of water sports in Kerala or can visit tea/coffee/spice plantations in Kerala for remarkable nature walks. Apart from that, going for rejuvenating Ayurveda therapies in the beach resorts or renowned Ayurveda centres is again a real treat to your senses.
