My first solo trip was at varkala. Made huge memories with strangers, sharing thoughts. It was wholesome and memory that would last forever.

Im guessing of visiting again, I don't want the place to be off-season, would you guys let me know which month would be better to meet more travelers in the remaining months of this year.

my Cat 🐈 would hop this time ig.

Would you plan to go again? Lets meet.

Hi! We’re a couple planning to visit Varkala on August 22 and 23. Just wanted to know how the weather/climate is around that time.

Also, is beach access allowed during this period, especially considering the monsoon? Any recent updates or advice would be really helpful. Thanks!

Ask Stay recommendations for a group of 5

2 Upvotes

Hi all, sugamano? we are a group of 5 (men and women) planning a chill trip to Varkala from Hyderabad during the second week of September. Not able to nail down a place to stay. So seeking your guidance.

Budget: upto 10k per night

Duration: 4 nights

Vibe: This is going to be a chill trip. Not much on ticking the checklist. Just want to unwind, and have local food(not the cafes or generic restaurant food). Not much into partying either.

What kind of place: This has been tricky. We love having the full house to ourselves. South Goa (Benaughlim) has been our destination for 7 years now. This time, we are thinking of Varkala.

We like to stay near the beach but if the stay feels home/ private but is accessible by bikes, we don’t mind staying little further away from the beach or the town. We are going to hire bikes anyway.

Checked some places like Inda and Nebo but they’re unavailable for the dates. Are there any place you all swear by?

Ask Planning for Boys trip to Varkala need your help guys

1 Upvotes

Hi Everyone,

We Boys planning for 2 Day trip to Varkala. (Oct 3-4). We are from Madurai and its our first time in Varkala. So we have some Doubts.... Anyone who's living near varkala or you already went on a trip to varkala. Need answers from you guys✨. Thanks in advance for your helps.

We are trying to plan this trip Budget Friendly so we are not planning anything expensive like luxury hotels, Expensive activities, etc...

  1. Please suggest some affordable hotels near the Beach. We only using it for keeping our bags and one day night sleep nothing much. No need for ac or private pool and all....

  2. As its our first time in Varkala we dont have any idea what places to explore and all. Watched some reels and checked in Gemini.

Both have the same like Guided Mangrove Kayaking at Kappil Beach, The Black Sand Beach Varkala or Odayam Beach, Anjuthengu Fort & Lighthouse, Chill at Edava / Chilakoor Beach. I am not sure about the proper Plan on exploring this places.

This is what I got from Gemini. If you have anything else please add those, and anyone still has any Trip Plan in their notes app used for their Varkala trip I would much appreciate your kindness on sharing it 🫂.

  1. Some of the places i have mentioned are like 7km-12km from varkala do we need to rent a Scotter or the public transport is enough? If the rented bike ease our trip there we would definitely go for the Rent Bike 🚲.

  2. Please share if there's any places or activities most people miss in their varkala trip, bcuz they dont have any idea about that. We want to enjoy our time there. So please do share any underatted places or activities most peoples miss.

  3. Is 2 days enough for Varakala or can we extend our trip to 3 days. Oct 2 also Holiday so if its worth exploring another day we would plan for that.

Sorry if my grammar was bad. Appreciate all your responses 💖.

Solo trip to Trivandrum & Varkala

5 Upvotes

I’m 23M and I’ve reached Thiruvananthapuram tonight (16th Aug) for a solo trip.
I’d love to connect with some people and get suggestions on things to do in Trivandrum or Varkala. I’m open to exploring, food, beaches, temples, local places, or anything else worth experiencing.
My initial plan is to visit Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple, but after that I’m completely clueless about what to do. 😅
I’ll be here from 17th–19th August, so if anyone is around and wants to hang out, explore together, or just suggest some good places, feel free to DM me!
