Why Visit ?
Alleppy Beach: Stretching up and down the coast, Alleppey beach offers sights of beautiful sunsets and a pleasant, romantic walk on the sun kissed sands. The swaying coconut trees just add to the magnificence of the place.

Nehru Trophy Boat Race: Held on the second Saturday every august, this is the most popular snake boat race held in India. Be sure to catch it on your visit!

Kottayam Town: An old town with ancient churches, dating back over 600 years. Contributing to the heritage of the region, Kottayam town showcases the old Kerala lifestyle.
Kerala Kayaking: Choose between single or double paddle boats, and be transported back to your starting point by motor boat. A thrilling activity in touch with nature offered by the only kayaking outfit in Alleppey. 
Based on a 4 or 7 or 10 hour trip, charges vary from Rs.1000 to Rs.4000. 
Aruvikkuzhi Waterfalls: Picnic by the cascading waters of Aruvikkuzhi waterfalls. Relax as the water gushes past and the birds chirp nearby. 

Sri Krishna Ayurveda Panchkarma Centre: Get a relaxing massage at affordable rates. They offer three, five and seven night accommodation packages along with yoga lessons.
With an abundance of both salt and fresh water sources, sea food is aplenty. Karimeen or pearlspot is the favourite fish around here.

Tender coconut water is ubiquitous and is a must have in Kerala. One could also upgrade to the local drink Toddy once settled down.

Beef, pork and mutton dishes are excellent accompaniments for Appam (a bread prepared with fermented rice batter and coconut milk) and tapioca.

Chakara Restaurant: A rooftop restaurant, it specializes in a combination of Kerala and European cuisine.

Harbour Restaurant: A spectacular ambience by the beach, this restaurant is run by the same people who run Chakara Restaurant. 

Other places to try include Thaff, Mushroom, and KreamKorner Art Café.
Best things to shop here are coir products and antiques. Scale models of several styles of boats (vallams) are good as souvenirs. Handmade mirrors from Aranmula are highly desired and carry a geographical identification tag.

Although souvenirs aren't prevalent, you can stock up on pepper, cardamom, areca nut and others.

Languages spoken: Malayalam, Tamil, English, Hindi

Currency: Indian Rupee

Climate: Summers are hot and humid while winters are pleasant. The best time to visit would be from September to March!

Connectivity: Mobile connectivity is not very reliable in these regions.

Trivia: Vembanad lake is the longest lake in India.

Backwaters: Surrounding the Vembanad lake, off the Arabian Sea coast, this network is a labyrinth of rivers, lakes, inlets and canals meandering through paddy fields and small villages. Attracting people all around the world, Kumarakom, now declared Special Tourism Zone, is the prime of houseboat experiences in India, with Kashmir being the counterpart.  Although mostly used for tourism, there are different styles of boats for specific purposes.
Backwaters here connect Kumarakom and Cochin in the north; and Quilon to the south.
Several races are hosted all around this region with families and respective neighbourhoods battling it out for coveted trophies.
