National Geographic Traveler was never more right
when it tagged Kerala backwaters in the list of 50 important, must-visit
tourist destinations in the world. UNESCO has also tagged Kerala and its
backwaters as a World Heritage site. In fact, you can enjoy a kaleidoscope of
Kerala culture when you are on a tour of its pristine backwaters. There
are plenty of exciting ways to enjoy the virgin beauty of Kerala backwaters and
the Njarakkal Aqua fish farm in Cochin is just one of them. It is part of the
Kerala Fisheries Department and Tsunami Emergency Assistance Program
(TEAP). Fishes like Prawns, Karimeen (Pearlspot), Mullets, Tilapia, Crab ,
Green Shell Mussels are the important species in the farm according to the aqua
farm employees and members. Spanned across
an area of 18 kilometers, this mesmerizing fish farm with its brackish waters
and alluring beauty is perhaps one of the most endearing highlights of Cochin.
Fishing is one of the most significant sporting activities in Njarakkal Aqua
fish farm. You will be given fishing reels, fish food and lots of useful
advice, but after that you are on your own. You can also meet a few
professionals and maybe garner a tip or two from them. If they feel you are not
a threat to their business, they might offer some ‘fishy’ tips. Favored by both
locals and tourists, the fish farm lets you take your catch back home where you
can proudly show off your fishing exploits to others. You can enjoy a very
delicious and sumptuous lunch consisting of rice, fish and vegetables when you
visit the farm. This is also included in the entrance pass. The crispy
fish fries and spicy, delicious fish curries provided during lunch will only
urge you to earn your own share of fishes when you go fishing on your own.
You can relax in the green shade of the coconut
trees, lie in a hammock and sway slightly to the wind’s rhythms, be lulled into
sweet indulgence by the murmuring waters and maybe, doze off a bit in the
soothing evening rays of the sun.
Give yourself a day of peaceful submission at
this stunning farm.
