Start your trip by relaxing at Varkala Beach. This long stretch of beach is perfect for sunbathing and swimming. You can also try parasailing and other water sports here. In the evening, head to the Clafouti Beach Resort for drinks and dinner on the beach.
Start your day with a relaxing Ayurvedic massage at the Sanjeevani Ayurveda and Yoga Center. In the evening, head to the Black Beach Cafe and Bar for a night of music, dancing, and drinks. This popular bar has a great atmosphere and a variety of cocktails to choose from.
Take a scenic drive to Kappil Lake for a day of adventure. Go kayaking or canoeing on the lake and explore the beautiful surroundings. Afterward, enjoy a delicious lunch at the Theeram Restaurant and finish the day with a sunset cruise on the lake.
If you have more time, consider taking a day trip to the nearby Anjengo Fort or the Kollam backwaters. For those with less time, skip the Ayurvedic massage or the Kappil Lake adventure tour. Also, keep in mind that most bars and clubs close by midnight in Varkala.
