Welcome to Cherai

Blessed with a unique blend of sea and backwaters, Cherai is an exotic mixture of nature and culture at its best. With the beautiful Periyar River to the east, and the inviting waters of the Arabian Sea to the west, Cherai has everything that a holidaymaker would desire. It has acres of whispering green coconut corridors, a glorious long shoreline of secluded golden beaches, warm sunshine and sea, laced with tranquil stretches of winding scenic backwater where local fishermen expertly employ their traditional Chinese fishing nets. Cherai boasts of several historic temples, churches and mosques, which attract people of differing faith who have lived in communal harmony for centuries.
