Begin your itinerary with the Varkala Beach, popularly known as Papanasam Beach. Take a leisurely walk on the sandy beach, try some beach games, and enjoy the sun. Then, head out for a refreshing dip in the Chilakkoor Beach, a quieter and secluded beach just 3.5 km away.
Start off the day with an adrenaline-pumping parasailing experience at the Kappil Beach, which is known for its scenic beauty, and ride on the back of some of the highest waves for the best view possible. Next, head to the Janardhana Swamy Temple, a prominent Vaishnavite shrine beautifully placed by the seashore. Take the divine walk, meditate and admire the temple architecture. Lastly, catch a sunset while enjoying the cliff views and an evening bonfire at the Varkala Cliff Beach.
Add a day or two to explore the backwaters of Alleppey or Kumarakom or to take a rejuvenating Ayurvedic spa treatment in a beachside resort. If your group prefers nature and adventure, take a day trek to the Anjengo Fort and the Varkala Tunnel, the 924ft long uphill tunnel.
