Backwaters of India

India is blessed with numerous beautiful beaches and backwaters. The backwaters of India look serene, giving you ample time to unwind. Cuddled by flourishing groves of coconut trees, the backwaters add glittering stars to any holiday planned with the purpose of relaxation. Just hire an exquisitely crafted houseboat and experience luxury, style and comfort amidst nature.

Whenever one talks about the backwaters of India, images of Kerala crop up in the mind. Kerala backwaters form a string of brackish lagoons lying parallel to the Malabar Coast. What add beauty to them are the magnificently adorned houseboats which offer a great holiday experience to the vacationers. All the houseboats in this emerald state are well equipped with modern day amenities, which make the stay extremely gratifying.

Another astonishing facet of the backwaters of Kerala is that they house a delicate ecosystem which acts as home to various marine creatures such as Mudskippers, Otters, Turtles, etc.

Some of the most astonishing destinations where you can experience the charm of backwaters of Kerala are:

• Kuttanad
• Alappuzha
• Kumarakom
• Munroe Island
• Thiruvallam
• Kasaragod

While most travellers head for Kerala to immerse themselves in the charisma of backwaters, few also visit Goa to experience authentic backwater cruises. Being a popular beach destination, Goa also lets you delve into endless fun where you can soak yourself under the sun, in a beautifully crafted houseboat. There are many restaurants and pubs in this smallest Indian gem which float over Goan waters all day long. The experience on a Goan houseboat is enlivening with pulsating music, delectable sea food and soul soothing surroundings.
