Munroe Island

Munroe Island, nestled in the breathtaking backwaters of Kollam, is a secret gem of Kerala that enchants visitors with its unparalleled beauty. The island, which is surrounded by the peaceful Ashtamudi Lake and the Kallada River, provides breathtaking views of lush coconut plantations. A canoe trip through the narrow canals of the backwaters is the perfect way to experience the island's tranquility. The journey takes you through small hamlets along the backwaters, giving you an insight into villagers' everyday lives. The best drives are those taken early in the morning or late in the evening when you can see ethereal sunrises and sunsets.
