Along the Way
The Drive from Kochi to Rameshwaram
Pickups run from any part of the city, including Vyttila, Thevara and Fort Kochi. An Ernakulam to Rameshwaram taxi heads south-east through Kottayam, while a Cochin Airport to Rameshwaram taxi adds about 40 minutes at the start. The lead driver confirms your lodge near the temple before leaving. The road climbs through Kanjirappally and the cardamom hills to Kumily, where the car enters Tamil Nadu. After the ghat descent to Cumbum and Theni, the Kochi to Rameshwaram via Madurai route skirts the temple city on its ring road. This saves an hour of traffic. From Madurai, the land turns flat and dry, with palmyra palms and salt pans near Ramanathapuram. A Kochi to Ramanathapuram taxi ends at the district town, about 55 km before the island. Devipattinam's Navagraha temple lies just off this road. At Mandapam, the car crosses the Pamban road bridge, more than 2 km long over the open sea. Fishing boats and the new vertical-lift railway bridge sit just beside it. The Kochi to Rameshwaram distance by road is close to 450 km. Most drops are near the Ramanathaswamy Temple's east gate, a short walk from Agni Theertham beach. A Kochi to Dhanushkodi taxi continues about 20 km to the ghost town and Arichal Munai, the island's eastern tip, where the road meets the sea.
No Return-Leg Charge
