March 2023 Kerala Travel Archive

Welcome to the March 2023 archive of Kerala Holiday Escapes. Here you’ll find everything we shared during that month – from beach guides to backwater itineraries. If you’re planning a trip now, the tips we posted in March are still spot on.

What the March posts covered

We kicked off the month with a guide to the best beaches for early‑summer sun. The list highlighted Varkala’s cliffside views, Kovalam’s family‑friendly stretch, and Marari’s quiet sands. Each entry included practical info on where to stay, what to eat, and the best time to catch the sunrise.

Mid‑month we shifted focus to the backwaters. A detailed itinerary walked readers through a houseboat cruise that starts in Alappuzha and ends in Kumarakom. We broke down daily activities, suggested local dishes to try on board, and gave advice on navigating monsoon‑season traffic.

We also posted a short piece on cultural events happening in March. The Thrissur Pooram festival, the Attukal Pongala celebrations, and a few lesser‑known temple fairs made the cut. Readers got dates, locations, and tips on how to blend into the crowds without feeling lost.

Why these posts still matter

Even though the weather has changed, the core advice remains useful. Beaches don’t lose their charm, and the backwater routes are the same year after year. Our food recommendations – like fresh fish curry at a beach shack or toddy‑infused snacks on a houseboat – still taste amazing.

If you’re new to Kerala, the March posts serve as a quick starter kit. They answer common questions about transport, safety, and budgeting. For example, we explained why renting a scooter in Kochi is cheaper than hiring a car for short trips, and how to book a houseboat directly with local operators to save money.

Overall, the archive gives you a snapshot of Kerala’s March vibe: warm sun, vibrant festivals, and calm waters. Browse through the entries, pick the tips that fit your itinerary, and start building your own Kerala adventure.
