One of the most exciting and least explored tourism themes in Kerala is the monsoon tourism which comes during the months between June to September every year. During the monsoon season Kerala will experience heavy and continuous rainfalls, which will give a different dimension to this beautiful place. Usually the monsoon season is not welcomed too much by the local people of Kerala as it really makes life difficult for them due to the continuous rain that acts as a hurdle for their daily life. There are chances of natural calamities, landslides, flood and even certain group of workers face lack of job opportunities during the rainy season.
But for those coming from outside Kerala, monsoon season is something that is worth enjoying and people from different parts of the world comes to Kerala to enjoy the beauty and thrill of Kerala's monsoon tourism. The idea of monsoon tourism in Kerala was not a popular one in the past, but in the last decade the concept of tourism during the monsoon has gained more importance and started attracting a good number of travelers from different locations.
The continuous rain really calms down the temperature and most of the time there will be a cool climate during the monsoon season. There are a lot of travel places and activities that you can undertake during the monsoon period and it all depends upon your taste and mood. The backwaters, rivers, the paddy fields and the hill stations will be at the peak of their beauty during the monsoon season and you can really think of exploring these attractions in Kerala during the rainy season. Due to chances of dangers such as flood and land slide, it is better to stay away from hill stations and river trips.
The best thing that you can do to enjoy the monsoon tourism in Kerala is to have a cruise along the backwaters of Kerala on a houseboat. This will really provide you an enjoyable journey and you can very well enjoy the beauty and charm of the monsoon season in Kerala. You will be able to enjoy the beauty of the backwaters, lake, and adjoining villages which are worth watching. You can also enjoy traditional Kerala food in the houseboat and it will be a great time for you to enjoy the monsoon tourism in Kerala.
It is not just about enjoying the trip on houseboats during the rainy season and you can indeed take a walk around the villages and nearby places to get a better feel about the monsoon tourism in Kerala.

The enjoyment that you feel really tells you why Kerala is regarded as one of the top travel destinations in India and why it holds a special place in the tourism map of India.
