Hello, Am new to this Forum but scanning through a few posts seems to be a pretty handy and helpful place for practical information. This is my first visit to Kerala! I am going through Munar and Kumarakom. I need some suggestions regarding the 3rd place. The analysis I have done so far suggests me 2 places Kodaikanal (Tamil Nadu) and Kovalam. I will be going out with family in and around 14th to 24th of June. I understand the fact that my question is comparing 2 contrasting places but I would really appreciate any personal opinions. Also one thing is that whether munar and kodaikanal being two hill stations afterall be similar in certain respects. In that case would going to Kovalam being a beech be a better choice? I would be enlightened with any suggestions/guidance I receive on my entire tour. Thanks...
