Kerala hosts many paradises, each offering a window into its diverse landscapes, rich culture, and storied heritage. Among them, the backwaters stand as a realm where water shapes the land and life itself. A journey through these tranquil waterways is more than a voyage—it is an immersion into the soul of Kerala, where nature and tradition intertwine seamlessly.

Stepping onto a traditional Kettuvallam (houseboat) with Spice Coast Cruise by CGH Earth, the world slows down. Designed sustainably with rustic charm, the houseboat becomes a floating home gliding through Kerala's storied past and present. Unlike conventional sightseeing, this journey unfolds at an unhurried pace, allowing travellers to embrace the rhythm of the backwaters.

Crafted from coir and wood without a single nail, the Kettuvallam merges heritage charm with modern comfort, embodying CGH Earth's signature hospitality. The cruise takes travellers along carefully curated routes, weaving through lesser-known waterways, scenic lakes, and historic villages. Each stop offers a distinct experience—from vibrant markets and serene paddy fields to ancient temples and birdwatching havens. Anchoring at secluded spots, guests enjoy intimate moments such as starlit dinners, cultural storytelling, and village walks, making this more than a mere sightseeing excursion.

The journey includes docking at bustling locations like Kuppapuram, where fishermen return with the day's fresh catch, and Karumadi, home to an ancient Buddha statue. Narrower canals offer a deeper connection to backwater life. Onboard, guests indulge in authentic flavours—freshly caught Karimeen (pearl spot fish), fragrant rice, and coconut-infused curries—prepared with time-honoured recipes and native spices.

The backwaters serve as a passage through a land untouched by time yet thriving with vitality. The experience is not just about travel; it is about becoming part of a living, breathing landscape.

What sets the Spice Coast Cruise apart is its thoughtfully designed range of itineraries, each curated to offer a unique blend of serenity and exploration. Whether it's a leisurely introduction to Kerala's backwaters or a deeper dive into its cultural and historical landscapes, every journey is crafted to unfold in a natural rhythm. As the cruise glides through tranquil waterways and vibrant villages, guests can engage with local traditions, explore heritage sites, and immerse themselves in the region's timeless beauty. With carefully planned routes that balance relaxation and discovery, the experience offers an authentic and unhurried connection to Kerala's rich landscapes and way of life.

This is not just a cruise but a journey into Kerala's heart. Whether for a day or a few, the backwaters of Kerala offer an unparalleled experience—an invitation to sail through serenity and discover the magic of its mosaic.
