Kerala Monsoon Season

The months of June to September in Kerala are nothing less than a sensory feast as  monsoon season takes place during these months. Drenched with lush green, soaked in revitalising rain showers and infused with the fresh fragrance of the earth, this is the season when God’s Own Country really glows. In this blog, we’ll explore why the Kerala monsoon is a must-see travel spectacle.  

Why Kerala’s Monsoon is Unforgettable

• Scenic Beauty
  Continuous heavy rains make hillsides and plains become emerald green. Tea gardens and spice farms thrive in rainbow colours.
• Backwater Bliss
  Canals, Vembanad Lake and rivers bloom with rain. So the stay on a houseboat in Alleppey is even more magical.
• Rejuvenating Ayurveda
  The wet climate in turn adds to the qualities of Ayurvedic treatments, which are soothing beyond belief.
• Fewer Crowds
  Off-season means more seclusion, more local life, and lower prices—without compromising beauty or ambiance.
