Promoted by the national award winning farmer GS Gul Mohammed, this is Kerala’s only Theme Village with oyster farming as its theme. And it tempts visitors with a range of gourmet delicacies and hideouts totally cutoff from the hustle and bustle of the city. The theme village is unique with huts and restaurants exclusively for the guests, both on land, water and treetop, built with the locally available materials doing absolutely no damage to the rich habitation of this virgin land. The brackish water of Padanna and its surrounding villages are splendid and gifted with enormous natural beauty. The retreat is surrounded by a number of tiny palm-fringed islands..
