Ponnumthuruthu, or Golden Island, lies about 20 kilometres from Varkala within the tranquil backwaters of the Kallada River, home to a roughly 100 year old Shiva Parvathi temple set amid dense coconut groves. Reaching the island requires a boat ride, adding a scenic backwater journey to the temple visit itself. The combination of natural beauty and quiet devotion makes it a distinctive day trip from Varkala.
