From the
tranquil waterways, the coastal mangroves, to the powering rivers with
thundering rapids, India offers opportunities aplenty for kayaking. The
adventure tourism has witnessed a steep growth in the recent years and resulted
in many operators offering a plethora of kayaking adventures from the calm
backwaters of Kerala to the beaches of Goa to the islands of Andaman and
Nicobar in the Bay of Bengal, the Lakshadweep islands in the Arabian Sea to the
mystique Himalayas. The Northern part of India boasts some of the best river
kayaking experiences whereas sea kayakers will find the tranquil beaches and
waters around Goa, Karnataka and Kerala, and the two islands best for kayak India.
The
appropriate season for kayaking in India
depends upon which region you wish to kayak in. The time between October and
April is optimal kayaking season for most of India before the onset of monsoons
which is a dangerous time for kayaking but the Himalayas and other northern
parts of the country that are snowbound during the later part of the year have
kayaking expeditions between the months of June and September.
Goa Kayaking
Goa is one
of India’s leading destinations for Kayaking. Kayaking trips are offered by
various organizers in the most scenic and safe rivers in Goa. The Zuari, the
Mandovi, the Sal backwaters and the Nerul River are common rivers where
kayaking expeditions are run on a daily basis. Kayaking in Goa offers tourists
the opportunity to view up close the unspoiled thick mangroves, bountiful
forests and explore the pristine beaches with absolutely no harm to the
environment.
High quality
safe equipments for kayaking including kayaks, paddles, boats, lifejackets are
provided by the organizers and the kayakers are advised to dress suitably and
carry essentials before the expedition.
