Alumkadavu Backwater

Alumkadavu -Backwater tourism – a place to halt. Alumkadavu is a quiet village on the banks of the Ashtamudi –backwaters in Karunagappally is popular for its boat building yard, these days working at full capacity to churn out as many houseboats as they can to meet the ever growing demands of the kerala's tourism industry. The boats which were earlier called kettuvallom's were originally intended to carry cargo. but as more and more places gained road and rail access the faster transport through road and rail took over the job from the traditional water transport. The kettuvallom's has been given a new lease of life in its present form as houseboats or rather floating resorts. Alumkadavu is about 23 kilometers from Kollam in the Kollam – Alappuzha water ways. Those who travel in the water ways can halt at Alumkadavu for sight seeing. The fresh water lake of Sasthamkotta, Thirumullavaram beach and the Subramanian temple etc are worth seeing. Kollam – Alappuzha water ways about eight hour boat drive is a real experience to any tourist. Ashtamudi Lake (literally, having eight arms): which covers a major portion of Kollam district in the south, is the second largest and is considered the gateway to the backwaters. The eight hour trip between Kollam and Alappuzha is one of the longest backwater cruises in Kerala.
