A quiet, fun retreat at Kovalam
INTRODUCTION
Beaches make for a great escapade from the chaotic urban life and Kerala, with a massive coastal line, is just full of that. Each of its beaches has something unique to offer, and that’s exactly what lures tourists from across the world to God’s Own Country relentlessly. Kovalam is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Kerala. It is located in the city of Trivandrum. With its crescent shaped beaches, coconut grooves and mossy rocks that extend to the beaches, it is one gorgeous place to chill.

TOUR ITINERARY
Our executive will pick you up from the airport/railway station and take you to the hotel where the accommodation is arranged. After freshening up, you start what might probably turn out to be one of the most idyllic vacations of your life. You can spend the first day loitering around the many beaches in Kovalam, like the Hawa Beach, Lighthouse Beach etc. While you can just chill at the beach and play with the waves, you can also indulge in some adventure by going for surfing, boat riding, parasailing and snorkeling. In the evening, climb the lighthouse to catch a spectacular view of the town and the sea, as well as sunset.
The second can be allotted for a bit of history and some pampering. Start by basking in the sunrise at one of the beaches. Then, visit the Halcyon Castle, built by MR Ry Sri Rama Varma Valiya Koil Thampuran, consort of Maharani Sethu Lakshmi Bayi, in 1932. Originally built for the retreat of the royal family, it has now been converted into a heritage hotel. You can then head out and explore the Ayurvedic massage centers and spas, and pamper yourself. Apart from a rejuvenation perspective, you can also get treated for specific ailments. Wrap up the evening by doing some handicraft shopping to carry back a souvenir.
As you bid adieu to the blue beaches and green coconut grooves, you will not be able to help but make a promise to return to this quiet paradise.
