Where is Kumarakom?

The beautiful area of Kumarakom is made up of islands, lakes, rivers and canals. It’s often referred to as ‘paradise’ with its mangroves and coconut trees and is found in the State of Kerala.

With a well balanced tropical climate it offers perfect conditions for a vast population of flora and fauna. The area has always attracted many migratory birds such as the heron, Siberian stork, teak and egret. The establishment of the 14 acre ‘Bird Sanctuary’ allows this to continue in a protected environment and is now a popular tourist spot.

A great way to really experience what the area has to offer is to hire a motor boat or better still, if the budget allows, a houseboat and stay out on the lakes for a couple of nights.
