Varkala
A haven for ayurvedic spas
Located between the Western Ghats and the coastal beaches, Varkala is distinguished by mineral water springs sourced from the sedimentary cliffs of the escarpment – making it a haven for ayurvedic spas. With a 2,000 year old temple, a sleepy, rustic atmosphere and numerous holistic health centres for yoga and massages, Varkala offers a slice of tranquility and peace for the cityworn.
