Experience the thrill of jumping off the cliffs into the Arabian Sea at Varkala Beach. The cliffs are about 15m high, and the water is deep enough for a safe landing. You can also rent a surfboard or take a dip in the sea. Afterward, take a walk on the beach and enjoy the sunset view.
Join a guided kayaking tour on the serene Kappil Lake. Paddle through the mangrove forests, spot colorful birds and enjoy the tranquil scenery. The tour usually lasts around 2 hours. After kayaking, take a stroll around the lake, or have a picnic.
Soar like a bird over the Varkala cliffs with a tandem paragliding experience. You'll have a 360-degree bird's eye view of the sea and cliffs while safely harnessed with a trained pilot. The flight usually lasts around 20-30 minutes. Afterward, enjoy a relaxing Ayurvedic massage or treat yourself to some fresh seafood.
Book your activities in advance to ensure availability. Arrive early in the morning to avoid crowds and afternoon heat. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes, bring a hat and sunscreen, and carry a water bottle for hydration.
