Sree, our driver absolutely superb.
Our 10 day tour around Kerala was perfect.
Kochi Arrival – Fort Kochi Heritage & Chinese Fishing Nets
Welcome to Kerala. Your journey begins at Cochin International Airport, where your private driver will meet you according to the confirmed pickup arrangements.
Transfer to your selected Kochi hotel and check in. After a rest, head towards Fort Kochi, one of Kerala’s most interesting destinations for heritage and documentary-style photography.
Fort Kochi Waterfront
Explore the historic waterfront near Vasco da Gama Square, where the traditional Chinese fishing nets form distinctive silhouettes against the sky.
Photograph the wooden structures, ropes and counterweights from permitted public areas.
The nets may be operated by local fishing crews, although active fishing cannot be guaranteed during your visit.
Heritage Streets & Architecture
Continue through selected streets of Fort Kochi, where old buildings, shopfronts, historic doorways and everyday street scenes provide opportunities for architectural photography.
Possible locations include the surroundings of St. Francis Church and Princess Street.
Photograph interiors only where permission is granted. Respect worshippers, residents and private property.
Chinese Fishing Nets at Sunset
Return to the waterfront for the late-afternoon light and, if weather permits, the sunset.
The cantilevered nets can form beautiful silhouettes against the Arabian Sea, with fishing boats and passing vessels adding foreground interest.
Return to the hotel after the photography session and dinner.
Try wide-angle frames of the fishing nets and tighter details of ropes, wood and working harbour textures. Seek permission before close-up portraits of fishermen or other people.
Arrival requirement: An afternoon or earlier arrival works best for the planned sunset shoot. Late arrivals can enjoy a shorter waterfront visit or proceed directly to the hotel.
