Coastal Holidays in India

The Western Ghats are a magnificent range of hills, rising up from India's Malabar Coast. The narrow coastal fringe is immediately succeeded by low, rolling hills which, in turn, rise up to huge, ancient rocks which form the backbone of the Western Ghats. Throughout these hills you find a cool escape from the hot plains below and they are scattered with small hill stations and breathtaking scenery. This meandering journey is designed for those with a love of nature and a thirst for discovery as it leads you to some of the more unexplored areas of the Ghats, hidden away in north Kerala and the southern reaches of Karnataka. Beginning in a secluded coffee plantation, high in the hills, you then travel deep into the jungle, cut off from the outside world. The journey would take you to one of India's foremost wildlife reserves, and slowly through the hills and plantations before arriving at the coastal town of Tellicherry. Travel down the Malabar Coast to the fascinating port city of Cochin and end with a few days relaxing on one of Kerala's glorious stretches of beach.
