If you have ever dreamt of cruising through the peaceful backwaters lined with beautiful lagoons, then you should never miss Sambranikodi!
Situated at the southern tip of Ashtamudi Lake, Sambranikodi is a picturesque island that invites you to experience the virgin beauty of God’s Own Country. The District Tourism Promotion Council (DTPC), Kollam, offers boating facilities here.
It is believed that during ancient times, small ships from China anchored along this coast. Local people referred to these ships as 'chambrani' and later the place came to be known as Sambranikodi.

The DTPC offers a 30-minute cruise through this incredibly beautiful spot. As part of this package, you will get a chance to experience the delicious local cuisine, and see the life of this fishermen’s village.
