Vé di động

Paravur Backwaters is one of the lesser known, tightly kept secret locations in southern Kerala. The Paravur Backwaters is safe and a sheltered waterbody, without much influence of the tidal effects.

You can be assured of the safety as the depth of the lake in general is not more than 10 feet and not wider than 1 km. This ensures you don't paddle out and lose orientation in unknown waters.

Our paddling center is located on a tiny sandbar (not wider than 70 meters) that sits between Arabian Sea and Paravur Backwaters.

Unique and a very rare trail of 10 KM distance which allows the participants to paddle and experience two types of waterbodies (Trip starts from saltwater area and go to east side of fresh water area and return.)

– Paddle under and pass the Railway Bridge.

– Visit Chithan Thampuran Temple Island.

– Paddle through the tunnels and canals inside the Mangrove Forest.

– Visit Black Devil Snail Sandbar Islands.

Very friendly staff and employees. Very easy process to go from arrival at the location to being out in the water. It was a bit long going from the point of departure to the mangroves. Approximately 5 km of rowing for about 30 minutes of touring the mangroves. Not for the weak.
Little paddle in paradise

What a lovely place, and experience. The owner and son, guide samson amd all the rest of the team couldn't have been more hospitable. The paddle was not tough and maybe better to do a longer excursion but the mangroves were beautiful.
Great activity, tour could be better

Setting was beautiful but there was little to no guidance from the tour guide. The activity would have been far better with more involvement from the guide with some insights into the history and nature of the area
Quiet lake - for relaxing paddle

We did about 3 hours around the lake and small area of mangoes Not much to see on lake but peaceful area to paddle as slowly as you like with Alen as your guide. The plenty of water on boat and jelly shoes if you want to get out if boat to walk on small islands
