Picnic Island – A Walk Into the Blue
Just across the shimmering shallows from Mathiveri lies a secret — a tiny uninhabited island locals lovingly call Picnic Island. A soft, untouched sandbank surrounded by turquoise water, it’s the perfect setting for beach picnics, private weddings, photoshoots, or simply a castaway afternoon beneath the sun.
But here’s where the magic begins:
On certain days — usually around full moon or new moon, when the tides shift — the sea retreats just enough to reveal a walkable sand path between Mathiveri and Picnic Island.
If you time it right, you can walk across the lagoon — barefoot and breathless — on what feels like a path made just for you.
Adventurous guests can also reach the island by canoe or even swim, if the sea is calm and spirits are bold. But remember: watch the tides and return before the ocean reclaims the passage.
