Kochi Cruises
Located on the southwest coast of Kerala, Kochi is famous for its exportation of spices, which has been in practise for 5,000 years – originally transported via the Silk Road; and then by sea, dominated by the Portuguese, British and Dutch, whose influences spread far and wide across India. Black pepper and cardamom are considered the best in Kerala's spice markets. The backwaters of Kerala are a stretch of lakes, canals and lagoons, which are home to many unique species of aquatic life.

Chinese Fishing Nets
Chinese fishing nets are fishing nets that are fixed land installations for fishing. These nets, known locally as ‘cheena vala’, are fixed to mounted, cantilevered frames, allowing them to be lowered into and hoisted from the water. Five or six fishermen operate each net at high tide. The typically modest catch is usually sold immediately.
Cuisine
The cuisine of Kerala is inspired by a fusion of Malabari, French and Arabian influences. It’s a blend of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. Rice, fish and coconut are the most common ingredients of almost all Kerala famous food. The flavours are enhanced with chillies, curry leaves, mustard seeds, turmeric tamarind, black pepper, cardamom, ginger, and cinnamon.
