Kerala’s Ayurvedic Surf & Yoga Town

Varkala is a serene cliffside town in Kerala, known for its unique mix of Ayurveda, yoga, beaches, and surf culture. Just minutes from our yoga shala, you’ll find golden sands, breathtaking cliffs, natural springs, and vibrant cafés overlooking the Arabian Sea. Unlike India’s busier tourist hubs, Varkala offers a safe, welcoming atmosphere, ideal for yogis, travelers, and surfers looking for both peace and connection. In our opinion, Varkala is the yogic dream come true!

The Home of Ayurveda

Kerala is the birthplace of Ayurveda, and Varkala is filled with authentic Ayurvedic centers, massage therapies, and herbal treatments. It’s the perfect place to experience holistic wellness alongside your yoga journey.

beaches, surf & culture

Varkala is the only beach in India with dramatic cliffs that drop into the ocean. It’s less crowded than Goa or Rishikesh, yet home to an international community, surf schools, and beach cafés.

local, but international

Here you’ll find the best of both worlds: local culture, South Indian food, temples, and markets, alongside global travelers, boutique shops, and eco-friendly cafés that make everyone feel at home.
