In spite of its small size, there are plenty of places to visit in Kovalam. It offers alluring views and is one of the must-visit places in Kerala. There are plenty of tourist spots in Kovalam, which will treat the eyes of every traveler.
The most celebrated and well-known tourist place in Kovalam is the Lighthouse Beach. It has a mesmerizing view and an abundance of things to offer.

When it comes to beaches and places to see in Kovalam, the Hawa Beach is not far behind. It is quieter in comparison to the Lighthouse beach, but the views are almost just as beautiful. The shores are lined up with numerous trees and the water, running up to the beach, looks serene and calming. The fishermen around that area are generous enough to offer short rides in their boats for those who wish to enjoy the sunset or the sunrise. This beach is definitely worth a visit.

Trip to Kerala
Travel agent have not change my munnar resort that I have not like that resort. Full trip was excellent except munnar resort(river tree).Trip to Kerala
I had booked my kerala trip with Rasoone travels through Travel Triangle. Everything staring from pickup till the end of the trip was very well organised and executed. Thanks to Rasoone travels team for making my trip wonderful and memorable. Behaviour of cab driver throughout the trip was one of the important factor in making my trip more memorable. He took us to several places which were not even planned in itenirary and fully cooperated with us even when we got late due to kids.Trip to Kerala
Travel agent was no where helpful. Every time he just cut a sorry figure and said nothing can b done. Houseboat was good and the driver was very helpful and cheering throughout the tripTrip to Kerala
Overall trip was nice but house boat was not up to the mark..cleanliness was not there not of lizards were there on the houseboat All in all nice trip but need improvement for arranging good Houseboat stay Hotel stay was just awaysome, room and overall atmosphere was soothing and will be stored in memory for longTrip to Kerala
Well experienced driver with more patience. Good service provided by Godwin Holidays Thanks a lot Munnar is very beautiful place.

It was a really good trip for us. The Cab driver was very cooperative and friendly. Already recommended couple of friends for travel triangle.Trip to Kerala
Hari and driver Prakashan were very helpful during the trip. Lake and Hills resort was a great experience with courteous service and delicious food. Hostess Thekkadi was a bit of let down where the bed was uncomfortable and service was reticent. Houseboat service was mediocre but they did perovide us with delicious seafood. Sunset in the houseboat Stay at lake and Hills.Trip to Kerala
The stay in Munnar was excellent. But boat house stay was very average. The staffs in boat house were good but boat was very old and rooms were not cleaned. The TT agent assured me of great experience but I was disappointed. Also the driver was not aware of roads and we were struggling for more than 1 hour just to find boat house location. Stay in Munnar, Munnar local sight seeingTrip to Kerala
It was a good trip only we had to be in a non ac cab for 2 days Jeep safariTrip to Kerala
The team arrangement for trip was ultimately fine , safe and enjoyable. The driver and resort every thing is fine and good . Thanks for the arrangement and everything

Ayurveda and Yoga should probably be available at your place of stay itself. If not, there are a number of Ayurvedic and Yogic centres on and off the beach. Only go for centres recognised by the Department of Tourism.
Surfing, wooden boat rides and motor boat rides are some of the activities that can be done. Sunbathing, swimming, herbal body toning massages, special cultural programmes and catamaran cruising are also some of the activities people go for.

Fried chicken in a red masala paste with freshly cut chillis. Vegetable sambal, paratha (a richer version of roti), beef fry and fish fry are commonly available.
