Located on the shores of the Arabian Sea, Kerala is a strip of land in southern India which has long been a favourite haunt of domestic and international tourists looking to unwind among the scenic beauty and cultural attractions of the state. With palm and coconut trees dotting the landscape, the green foliage of the Western Ghats beckoning visitors with its rich biodiversity of plant and animal life, and the friendliness of the people who will show you around their delicious cuisine, myriad festivals, complex dance performances, and traditional crafts, you will need multiple visits just to scratch the surface of what makes Kerala tick. Drop into any of its worldclass airports and railway stations or drive down its excellent road network to experience everything from wellness retreats to sustainable tourism initiatives and more.
DIVERSE ATTRACTIONS
From sandy beaches and glistening backwaters to cool hill stations and stunning wildlife reserves, Kerala abounds with a variety of geographical landscapes which will rejuvenate your soul and reconnect you with the morethan-human world. Go on tea plantation tours, stroll the winding lanes and embark on treks to South India’s highest peak—Anamudi—in Munnar. Make your way to Wayanad to see the historic Edakkal Caves, hop onto a safari of the Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary, hire a boat on Pookode Lake and watch the cascading waters of the Soochipara Falls.
Visitors will be treated to Kerala’s famed hospitality no matter where they go. Enjoy a cruise and stay on one of Alappuzha’s famous houseboats and experience the local cuisine morning, noon and night. These vessels are a reworked version of the kettuvallams of ages past—boats with a thatched roof over wooden hulls which were used to carry rice and spices. Drive to the internationallyrenowned beaches of Kovalam a few hours away whose calm waters are ideal for sunbathing and swimming.
