点评:In March in our last leg of Kerala Tour we did do a boat ride of Poovar backwater. There are different types of cruise available depending on boat size and duration...minimum is for 1 hour for Rs 2000-3000..Beware of the middlemen posing as booking agent near the jetty. .we were forced by one such fraudulent agent to take 3 hrs sunset ride consisting of AVM canal, neyaar river, mangroves, golden beach etc for 6500. But this unpleasantries aside boat cruise is not all loss.. specially the last leg of the journey where they take you to the golden beach and the Mother Mary statue ...sunset from there is really beautiful. Mangrove ride though feels like a rather hyped up poor cousin of Sunderbans or Bhitorkonika...it doesn't have the beauty or variety of flora and fauna of those two places...backwater AVM canal and the river is beautiful at places but nothing special than other places in Kerala. So all in all go there if you have an extra day to kill and haven't been to Kochi or Aleppy backwaters...otherwise allot an extra day for Varkala and enjoy the cliff laden golden beach.
