Introduction to P
oover: Unspoilt
and miraculously unexplored, Poovar Island is a rare Adam and Eve find
in Southern Kerala. Enveloped by the most serene backwaters, and
opening out to the sea and a dream golden sand beach. Poovar is truly
a window into paradise. Time stopped a few decades ago.
The tranquility is punctuated by the sound of waves and the birds.
The acreage is abundant in well preserved local flora, with hundreds of
species of spices, exotic flowers, complete with banana and coconut
groves. The sun god smiles generously on idyllic Poovar.
Sightseeing:
There's lots to do in addition to soaking in nature,
and the hammocks and the beach. Row to a neighbouring fishing village in
2 minutes. Alter course, and visit a centuries old martial arts village.
Kerala is the birthplace of a unique martial art form. Poovar Island
Resort is a mix of floating cottages, and conventional accommodation.
Floating units are constructed on hollow light weight concrete hulls.
They are air conditioned and fully equipped with all modern amenities.
