Ideal For

Birdwatchers, nature photographers, and anyone who wants a slower, quieter cruise focused on wildlife.

Instead of covering the full Poovar route, this cruise deliberately slows down and spends most of its 2 hours in the mangrove forest channels, where kingfishers, herons, egrets and cormorants are regularly seen, along with migratory species in season.

The captain adjusts speed and stops on request whenever birdlife is spotted, so the exact route can vary slightly from trip to trip depending on where the birds are that day.

Good To Know

Before you book

  • i Best season for migratory birds is roughly November to February — ask on WhatsApp for what's being seen currently.
  • i Bring binoculars and a zoom lens if you have them; the boat can slow down but won't get closer than is safe for the birds.
  • i Mornings tend to be more active for birdlife than midday.
