This is an arranged tour showing you various skills and activities of the local area.Someone has gathered together things like fish farming, pottery and the multiple things you can do with coconuts and built it into a tourist attraction. It was a good couple of hours. I can't comment on the price as it was included in our tour of southern India.

We thoroughly enjoyed the day from getting to the eco-village including a scenic boat ride past fishing nets and farms, to seeing the wide variety of local activities actively on display and experiencing an amazing lunch in a superb waterside setting. All the people there were very welcoming and explained what they were doing plus it was well set up. We learned a lot about the sustainability and life of the village, flora and fauna and the entrepreneurial managing of the village tourism. I would definitely recommend it to understand more about local way of life than you could discover elsewhere. .

This is a tiny model fishing village which we arrived at by small boat. We enjoyed a demonstrations on harvesting coconuts, treating coir & making it into ropes, catching crabs with small nets, local pottery making etc. It provides a fascinating glimpse into a simple, traditional livelihood of the villagers. We were then treated to a tasty lunch..

You need to take a 20 minute boat ride to the island where local craftsmen and farmers showed us many interesting things like crabbing, making coconut husk rope and basketry. We were met with each of us getting a coconut to drink. It was a lot of fun for an hour seeing the ‘old’ crafts still practiced. We then had a buffet lunch. I was really interested in all of the activities. I know it was a bit touristy, but learned a lot.

We visited Kumbalangi Integrated Tourism Village with our guide who took us round and explained it all to us what we did was similar to the Kumbalanghi Packages 1 with lunch. It is very much set up for tourists you are not seeing a village in action but it was well worth seeing.We started at the crab farming section and moved on to see how they cook clams, a pottery wheel (which was fascinating) how they climb to harvest coconuts and got to drink the two he chopped down, how the rest of the coconut is used all the way through to making coir rope, the lovely ladies gave us the rope they made. We saw how palm leaves are used for weaving for baskets and bindings as well as woven into panels.We were then taken by boat round the island passed the Chinese fishing nets for lunch which was delicious. We were worried it would be too touristy but it was actually fascinating and well worth doing.
