    1. Kayaking:- Kayaking happens to be one of the most loved watersports that you can try out during your visit to Kerala. There are a number of fascinating spots where you can try out this activity starting. Kayaking is very much popular in the backwaters of Alleppey as it is surrounded by picture perfect vistas all around.

During your trip, you will also get a chance to stroll through the paddy fields and indulge in a wide range of local activities learning more about the lifestyle of the residents.

    2. Surfing:- If you're an adrenaline addict who wants to feel the excitement of surfing in Kerala, plan a trip to God's Own Country between December and March. Water sports enthusiasts can enjoy the fresh sea breezes while surfing the Arabian Sea's tremendous waves during this period. Kerala is an excellent surfing destination for all levels of surfers, from beginners to experts. A newbie can enrol in a surfing school and learn the foundations of the sport, while an expert surfer can rent a surfboard and get in the ocean. Varkala Beach, Kovalam Beach, Kappil Beach, Poovar, Tiruchendur, and others are among Kerala's most prominent surfing sites.

    3. Catamaran Sailing:- A catamaran is a small wooden boat that resembles a yacht but has a hull on either side, and it is mostly used by Kerala's fishing community. Because of its increased agility, balance on splashing waves, and docility, it is highly preferred by fishermen who venture deep into the sea for fishing. Despite the fact that it was only introduced recently, catamaran sailing is quickly gaining popularity among visitors to Kerala. As a result of their increased popularity, catamarans have evolved in size, mechanism, and design. Kerala Tourism has lately introduced catamarans with new machine-driven propellers.

River rafting in Kerala is thrilling and fascinating in its own way.
