God's own country is full of breathtaking scenery. Aside from these, there are many things to do in Kerala's breathtakingly green landscape. Kerala offers a range of culinary experiences, including beautiful beaches, tranquil backwaters, and massages. This location has much more to offer. Here's a list of things to do in Kerala to make your vacation memorable.
Kappil Beach, Varkala
In Kappil, the road winds down with the ocean on one side and scenic backwaters dotted with coconut trees on the other. Kappil Beach, one of Kerala's least-explored destinations, is frequently overshadowed by its neighboring attraction, Varkala.
Gavi, Periyar
Gavi is a true paradise; it is a lovely forested area in the Periyar Tiger Reserve that surrounds the picturesque Gavi Lake. The lake's clear waters reflect the rich emerald hues of the dense forest that surrounds it. The forest is home to over 260 bird species and is teeming with wildlife. Bison, Elephants, Lion-tailed Macaques, and Malabar Giant Squirrels can be seen in the area. It is a nature lover's paradise and remains one of Kerala's best-unexplored areas.
Muzhappilangad Beach, Kannur
Muzhappilangad Beach is a driving enthusiast's dream come true. It is one of the world's longest drive-in beaches and one of the few beaches in India where you can drive a car or a bike. It makes it one of the best road trip destinations in Kerala, especially in April, when a vibrant beach festival is held here. The beach is ideal for beach stunts, also a natural paradise where many endangered birds can be seen.
Soochipara Waterfalls, Wayanad
Soochipara Falls will make your heart skip a beat! This waterfall is a testament to responsible tourism; the entire area is plastic-free, so you won't come across stray water bottles or wrappers while admiring the waterfalls. It also helps that it is one of Kerala's best-kept secrets, tucked away in a beautiful valley in Wayanad.
Ashtamudi Lake, Kollam
Kumarakom and Alleppey are famous for the legendary Kerala backwaters, but just a short distance away is the Ashtamudi Lake, which is unquestionably one of Kerala's best offbeat destinations. The large lake has eight waterways branching off it, has a diverse birdlife, and is even a bird sanctuary. The best way to experience the lake is to take a boat ride in traditional Kerala boats and let the relaxed atmosphere take over.
