Start your day with a serene backwater cruise through the canals of Alleppey. Experience the tranquillity of the trademark Chinese fishing nets and the lush greenery, and watch the traditional way of life along the waterway. Witness the art of coir making and the crafting of traditional boats and have a delicious, authentic lunch onboard. Enjoy the spectacular sunset on the backwaters while returning.
Spend a day at Marari Beach, a quaint and mellow beach that's less crowded than others in the region. Take a walk along the soft golden sands under the blue skies. This stunning beach is lined with coconut palms, and the sparkling blue waters of the Arabian Sea provide views for miles. There are also a plethora of seafood restaurants serving delicious local specialties.
If you have an extra day in Alleppey, you can enjoy a houseboat stay or explore the Kumarakom Bird Sanctuary. For those with a tighter schedule, try to fit in the Krishnapuram Palace or visit one of the beautiful temples and churches in the town.
