Founded by a family with a long-standing tradition of boat craftsmanship and maritime expertise, Marakkar Boats carries forward a legacy that dates back generations. Rooted in Kerala’s rich cultural heritage and inspired by the natural beauty of the backwaters, we are more than a boat tourism company—we are custodians of tradition, community, and sustainable exploration.**

Our journey began with a shared love for Kerala’s waterways, where each boat crafted and each tour designed reflects the artistry and dedication passed down through generations. At Marakkar Boats, we believe that every journey through Akalappuzha’s backwaters is a voyage through history, culture, and nature. Our commitment goes beyond providing a memorable boating experience; we strive to offer an authentic connection to Kerala’s landscapes and traditions.

With a vision grounded in sustainable tourism, we emphasize eco-friendly practices that honor and protect the natural beauty of Akalappuzha. Our goal is to share this magic with the world, offering guests a taste of the region’s serene charm while fostering an appreciation for its delicate ecosystem. Alongside our community, we work to ensure that every visit contributes positively to the local economy and supports preservation efforts. From supporting local artisans to using eco-friendly materials, we aim to leave a positive impact on both the environment and the people who make it thrive.
