Did you ever imagine capturing the perfect sunrise on peaceful waters, with reflections so pristine they resemble paintings? Kerala's backwaters are a photographer's heaven, and Exotica Cruises presents to you the best experience on the best houseboat in Kerala. We can assure you that every second on our houseboat is a frame waiting to be shot.
The Magic of the Backwaters of Alleppey
Alleppey called the Venice of the East, is a realm of infinite backwaters, rich greenery, and tranquil villages. As you sail through such picturesque backwaters, you shall see life unrolling at leisurely, idyllic paces. Fishing nets cast, children waving in the distance, and migratory birds flying high above all offer amazing scenes to your camera lens. A trip in our houseboat in Alleppey will make you get close to the untamed charms of nature.
Golden Hour Photography at Sea
One of the biggest advantages of staying on our houseboat is the access to the golden hour, the time just after sunrise and before sunset when the light is soft and warm. When you are capturing silhouettes of coconut trees against the morning sky or the golden shimmer of the sun on the rippling water, the beauty of Kerala’s backwaters is truly breathtaking. The stillness of the water enhances reflections, making for striking symmetrical shots.
A Photographer's Dream Stay
Our luxury houseboat Alleppey has been designed to provide the ideal spot for taking in the beauty of Kerala. The huge decks, large windows, and comfortable sit-outs give you uninterrupted views of nature at all times. You can enjoy sipping a cup of tea on the sundeck while taking photos of a family of ducks gliding by. The leisurely boat lets you take your time framing your shots so you get each detail just right.
The Beauty of Village Life and Wildlife
The backwaters of Kerala have also embraced life full of vibrancy, wherever a houseboat sails and drifts in the waters, where one is bound to catch a glimpse of some real Kerala homes, find women in colorful sarees washing clothes by the river, and locals take their small canoes to market. These moments speak volumes about the rich culture of Kerala and offer countless potential photographs of surreal photography. Bird enthusiasts will also be thrilled to find kingfishers, herons, and even eagles joining one on the journey.
Night Photography Under the Stars
As dusk falls and the Alleppey houseboat moors overnight, a completely new photographic adventure starts. With less light pollution, the backwaters offer a perfect backdrop for shooting at night. Take long-exposure photographs of the starry sky or the dancing reflections of lanterns in the water. The quiet atmosphere of the night creates a purely magical conclusion to your photography experience.
Exotica Cruises understands what photographers want. If you want tranquility or a bustling shot, we offer a perfect houseboat setting for both. Every corner of our houseboat is set up to provide you with the best possible views, so you never miss a picture-perfect moment. Grab your camera, frame your shots, and let Kerala’s backwaters do the rest.
