Adventure Tourism Promotion Society
For the promotion of adventure tourism in Kerala, the government of Kerala has decided to set up an Adventure Tourism Promotion Society. Mr. Kodiyeri Balakrishnan, Tourism Minister said that Kerala is gifted with geographical features that are most ideal for adventure tourism and the state must utilize this.
Paragliding at Wagamon in Idukki and parasailing at Payyambalam beach in Kannur are two well-established adventure centres of international standard in Kerala. Apart from these, eco-tourism destinations in Kerala are where tourists can enjoy adventure sports like trekking, mountaineering and kite flying. The upcoming Adventure Promotion Society will organise water-based adventure sports like parasailing, wave riding, scuba diving, boating, snorkeling and water skiing on the beaches.
