Kumarakom Travel Guide

Everything moves at a leisurely pace in Kumarakom and sets your mind at peace. The never ending rows of coconut palms gently sway in the breeze, clear water of the lagoons, backwaters flowing peacefully, miles of lush green paddy fields and mangroves that are alive with the call of a thousand birds, all contribute to the peaceful easy feeling that envelopes one in Kumarakom.

Kumarakom bird Sanctuary is home to some rare avians, so keep your binoculars handy and watch out for these spectacular creatures in full swing.

Aymanam, a place close to Kumarakom, lent a striking locale to Arundhati Roy’s Booker winning novel ‘God of Small Things’.
