Valiyaparamba Backwaters, located in Kasaragod district of North Kerala, is one of the most picturesque and less-explored backwater destinations in the state. Spread across a chain of small islands, it forms part of the Valiyaparamba River and opens into the Arabian Sea.

Unlike the more crowded backwater hubs, Valiyaparamba offers a calm and untouched experience. Visitors can enjoy houseboat cruises, canoe rides, and panoramic views of coconut groves, paddy fields, and traditional fishing villages. The tranquil waters and scenic surroundings make it ideal for couples, families, and nature lovers seeking peace.

The backwaters here are especially magical during sunset, when the sky reflects golden hues on the still waters.
