Overview of the destinationOne of the most unique destinations, which offers beach on one side and backwaters on the other(in fact most of the resorts are bang ON the backwaters) !!
Food, sight-seeing and shopping
Poovar is still less cluttered with the so-called 'free-to-trade bohemian attitude' shops of Kovalam. Poovar tries to tie you onto the real cause of travel - vacation. Since the USP of the place is being surrounded by water, one has to rely on the occassional boat trips if the hunger is for world-cuisine, you know what I mean !?
Activities & things to do
Sun, sun, some water, some more sun, water again and eventually the sunset - if you really want me to pen down activities. Kerala being the way they are, have restricted the best under-water activities (errr..i mean snorkeling, scuba so on and so forth) maybe due to the not-so-clean waters and leaves one to on-the-earth activities on the beach or maybe a nice swinging evening on a hammock!
Travel tips, How to reach, travel warnings etc.
Trivandrum - God's own country's headquarter is the airport which is about 70kms away. Nice drive in old-world Trivandrum fisheries belt reaches you to this wonderfully serene God' apna Poovar!
