You might have seen Kerala before, but exploring this place, paddling through its backwaters is something else. All you can see is gorgeous waterways lined with coconut trees and palms, clear skies and some rich historical sites along the way.
Start the new year, amidst nature
You will spend two days immersed in nature, culture and heritage, floating on the backwaters. Of course, we’ll be resting at night to revive our energies, and some folk music and cultural activities are planned to pump you up.
Explore heritage
Paddle to preserve
Paddling along the backwaters of Kerala is incredible. But, the biggest thing is to be able to contribute back to nature. We will be cleaning the river as we paddle and help preserve it. So, if you love nature and the water bodies, and care for them, come join us!
