Mangrove Forests – Paddle Through Nature’s Green Corridors

Just a short distance from Pondicherry lies the breathtaking Pichavaram Mangrove Forest — the second largest mangrove ecosystem in the world. Spread across 1100 hectares, this natural wonder is home to over 50 islands and a vast network of 4400 canals, with tree roots diving 10 feet deep. As you glide through the narrow waterways, the forest grows denser and more magical. Ideal for a mid-morning boat ride, the golden sunlight filtering through the canopy creates a surreal experience. It’s a must-visit for nature lovers and adventure seekers exploring Pondicherry.
