The Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean, and the Bay of Bengal all come together to feed the largest lake in India, called the backwaters. There are over 260 houseboats on the water and numerous canals have been formed to lead up to a village of homes and farmland.
Farming in Allepey is actually below sea level, which is the only place in the world like it. Basically our experience on the houseboat was meant as a MUCH needed 24 hours of relaxation. We spent the whole day floating the backwaters, reading, napping, and eating DELICIOUS food native to Kerala. Our boat had a kitchen, 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, and a common room at the front of the boat with a big table and couches. We enjoyed our long day of relaxation and woke up the next morning for our drive back to Coimbatore!
