About the experience
History and the beauty of nature collide at the enchanting Chorao Island. Known to the Portuguese as Ilhas Dos Fidalgos (The Island of the Noblemen), it was captured as one of their first conquests that began their 451-years long rule. Chorao Island is also an ornithologist’s paradise, being one of the most prominent areas for migratory birds in the whole of India and hosts the famous Dr Salim Ali Bird Sanctuary.
Walk down the trail that uncovers the best that Chorao Island has to offer. Sail into the mysterious mangroves, explore the oldest church of Chorao, one of the most unique temples of India, the Bunds and Maanos System, and the Lost Seminary. This heritage walk to the Island of Chorao is an exploration which balances everything in harmony-the beautiful ecosystems, a lost heritage and inspiring stories.
