Dear friends,

As we celebrate World Ocean Day this month, our cover story takes on a trail of marine eco tourism spots, combing conservation and adventures just for you. Our culture section takes a deep dive into the traditional methods of fishing across Tamil Nadu.

As for the foodies, we have something new and something special lined up for you. What if you could also indulge in shopping while waiting for the next order, we have got that covered too. Will the summer end with some showers or will the sun decide to sizzle its way for another two months, we have no idea. But we do hope that our coastal special issue helps you get the break you deserve.

Marine ecotourism:

Beginning of a new journey!

- Taanyaa Kapoor

Wanderlust is a feeling that everyone experiences in their day to day life. From planning a trip to executing it is always fun since it gives you a chance to escape the harsh reality. But what if adventure meets sustainability, nothing like saving the world with some fun to boot, right? This World Ocean Day, let’s dive for our future

Aravind Tharunsri, Director, PADI Master Instructor mentions how he has raised awareness through scuba diving.

Mr. Aravind said, “We do scuba diving training and educate the tourists on plastic cleanup. We believe scuba diving is not only for fun but also for educating public about plastic cleanup at the bottom of the ocean. In my training centre, we train fishermen since they’re going to be in the ocean for a longer time than us. As of now we’ve collected more than 30,000 kgs of plastic.”

Mr. Aravind is currently teaching scuba diving for the forest department as well. His organisation hires and educates the locals on marine ecosystems. All these activities are happening in Karankadu and Pondicherry.

He later concluded by saying, “Many people might find scuba diving expensive but one way that you can also contribute to this initiative is by going or sending your kids to plastic cleanups”

If you are looking for some offbeat places to explore marine tourism in Tamil Nadu, here’s a listicle to get you started.

1. Tharuvaikulam

Recently, in Tharuvaikulam, Thoothukudi, Glass-boats have been introduced to promote ecotourism. If you’re visiting Gulf Of Mannar then this is one thing you shouldn’t miss out on. Also, the Marine National Park will give you a glimpse of beautiful coral reef, flora and fauna in the sea.

2. Karankadu in Ramnad

In Karankadu, the forest department has been running a community-based ecotourism project. The tourists who come there have been spending their time in the waters eith sports like kayaking and recreational boating. There are many safety measures taken here such as providing lifejackets and boating being only allowed during high tide and not low tide.

3. Kurusadai Island

Kurusadai Island is immensely popular for marine ecotourism due its marine wealth. If you’re planning on visiting this place then you can take a guided tour along the island to see the marine species. Spotting red starfish, sea urchins and sea cucumbers will be an experience to cherish. The jetty in Kunthukal, from where the 90-minute round trip starts, is about 10 kms from Rameswaram town.

What are you waiting for, never say no to the call of the ocean.

Traditional Tamil fishing From Coir Nets To Bare Hands.

- RJS

The word fishing probably brings up images of yellow hued sunsets on a never ending horizon of the sea with a lonely fisherman casting his nets in hopes of a good catch to you. Or perhaps you’d think of those huge mechanised boats clawing through the waters. But did you know that there are groups of people who still use primitive fishing methods for their sustenance. Using only materials that are available locally, their ‘equipment’ are very simple but are ingenious in their purpose. Let’s take a look at some of these fishing methods ..

Karaivalai

Large group of people singing out loud as they pull out the line with a huge haul… That’s Karaivalai fishing. Popularly seen in Nagapattinam, Ramanathapuram and Tuticorin districts, this style uses a large net made of coir and consists of three parts, a boya, which is the top of the net, a stone set at the bottom to help sink the net and purai. Every morning, fishermen cast their lines for up to one kilometre into the sea. About two or three times a day, the net is dragged out to inspect the catch. Nagarai, sundai, mura sheela and vazhai are some of the fish types caught using this method.

Ootha

Ootha is a conical fishing gear shaped like a plunging basket and constructed using Notchi sticks. This primitive fishing gear is used by inland fishing communities of the Tiruchirappalli, Nagapattinam and Pudukottai districts. The trap has two ends, a broad opening at the bottom and another smaller one at the top. It

is plunged into shallow waters and the trapped fishes are handpicked. Viral, Auvri, Keluru, and Vilaangu are usually picked using this trap.

Palmyra baskets

Pazhaverkadu is a wetland bordering Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh. Yanadi, one of the most primitive tribes living in this area catch fishes with their bare hands and use baskets made of palm leaves to store them. The baskets are designed in such a way that the braiding follows the pattern of the palm leaves and naturally takes the shape of a basket. Prawns are most often caught using this.

While karaivalai is a fail-safe method for fishers to catch some fish, it can be very ecologically disruptive while prawn catching by hands are extremely sustainable, it is important for us to document and be conscious of the way we bring the food to the table.

A Spectacle of Flair, Gourmet & Art

Imagine a restaurant that has EVERYTHING UP FOR SALE!! Not just the food; but the chairs, the tables, the upholstery, door knobs, crockeries, cabinets, mirrors, frames, lights, gift boxes or just about anything in sight.

Kraft Retail Dining is a clever concept of straddling both worlds of cuisine & lifestyle and taking it forward to the niche crowd. Situated inside the Nandanam metro premises, the restaurant itself boasts of curated beauty in all its finesse. The green foliage wonderfully compliments the colourful ambiance and how! The sheer display of artefacts and home decor like the cane rattan furniture set beside gleaming glass walls along with the radiantly detailed lamps and many-hued vases, spells dexterous class that spills all over the place.

The menu is an interesting mix of Asian and Indian cuisines that pays homage to its heritage.

The Japanese Creamy Pumpkin Soup is a bowl of wonder and dreams. The thick yellow broth infused with tiny bite sized pumpkin chunks & other herbs springs flavour with the butter and cream working together to lend a luxuriant feel as the warm silky concoction makes it way down the pharynx! Got to taste it to believe it.

In contrast to the mellow, the Peri Peri Chicken Popcorn is fiery, spicy and spirited. The crunchy chicken pops, devoid of any grease, is fuelled with everything from heat to tang and is an apt entertainer like a perfect summer family blockbuster!

The highlight of their famous Katsu Sandwich is the delightful tenderness of the CRUMBED MEAT packed

amidst the softest of breads. It’s huge in proportions, light in the gut and a fitting evening snack to munch on in delight. A real stunner.

Happiness in a bowl! That’s what the Singapore Laksa encompasses. This noodle soup broth with succulent pieces of chicken marinated in special spices and sauces brims with all that is positive and froths over to ecstasy! The richness of flavour is evident even as it is just served on the table. The noodles are fresh, smooth & easy to slurp without restrictions. Oh, but the broth - enriched with savoury flavours cooked up in paradise itself, is so full of intensity that it sparks unexpected enthusiasm in between eager mouthfuls & satiated grins of pleasure.

It’s startling how something simple like the Mongolian Fried Rice can turn out be a game changer! The warm moist, sticky rice with a blend of chicken, prawns and eggs are intermingled with high note elements that rings emotions of love & intimacy. The sweet tartness of soy sauce and brown sugar flavours show their attendance in good measure and make this an absolute classic in all its modesty.

Scoopfuls of decadent Tiramisu for dessert is all that’s needed to sit back, take a breather and evaluate the grand consumption of the spread. Adorned with creativity and expressiveness, this magnificent place is testament to genuine quality in all its offerings. So head on over there to be awed by pure craftsmanship & gracious dining in every detail.
