Useful Tips

If you have some additional time, we recommend visiting the Nelapattu Bird Sanctuary, which is home to some rare bird species. However, this would add an additional 2 hours to your trip.

If you have less time, we recommend skipping the trekking in Kambakam Hills and spending more time kayaking at Pulicat Lake. This would reduce your estimated trip time to 6 hours, excluding travel.
