Parasailing
Have you ever wondered what will it be like to see the natural beauty of Kerala from a bird’s eye view? Try parasailing, which gives you a flying like a bird experience. So how does it work? A 300ft rope is attached to a speedboat, and the other end is attached to a harness. The boat roams around freely in the ocean, and you enjoy the experience. Don’t worry about landing either, as it’s safe due to a parachute.
