Who says that India is only ideal for just walking around and seeing tourist spots only? India also offers you some chance of adventure sports and activities. The only difference is people don’t know much about this aspect due to less advertising and awareness.
Need for adventure sports
There are tourists as well as locals who enthusiastically participate in adventure sports such as kayaking, canoeing, rock climbing, parasailing, boating, water rafting, etc. Rishikesh is famous for water rafting while Kullu Manali and Kerala is famous for parasailing. Boating can be followed in any of the tourist spots in India having a lake.

In Coimbatore, travelers opt for kayaking or canoeing based on their interests. These activities are done in Sulur Lake. You can also try out wind surfing as well if the wind is good on a given day. The best time is early morning and evening. If you are lucky, you can even spot some few migratory birds and photograph them.
