In kerela you get all, touch of hills, a ride in backwaters and elfin beaches. Yes I am talking about Varkala and Kovalam beaches.

We will start with Varkala, it has been voted as the second most stunning cliff beach in the world in 2019. It is the best place to watch sea from the cliff. Along 300 m long cliff there are numerous handicraft shops and amazing restaurants ABBA is my fav spot.
