About Ooty Boat House

Ooty Lake Boat House A Scenic Escape in the Nilgiris.Ooty Lake Boat House is one of the most iconic and picturesque attractions in Ooty, nestled in the heart of the Nilgiri Hills. Spread across 65 acres, the lake was artificially constructed in 1824 by John Sullivan, the then Collector of Coimbatore, as a fishing and boating spot. Today, it serves as a serene retreat for tourists seeking tranquility and recreation amid nature. Surrounded by eucalyptus trees and a green landscape, the lake offers paddle boats, rowboats, and motorboats for hire, making it an ideal spot for families, couples, and nature lovers. The calm waters reflect the blue sky and misty hills, creating a postcard-perfect setting. The adjoining boat house features a boathouse café, a small amusement park, souvenir shops, and a mini train ride for children, enhancing the experience for all age groups. The Ooty Lake Boat House is particularly lively during the summer months, with the annual boat pageant and flower show adding charm to the experience. Whether you wish to enjoy a peaceful ride or simply soak in the views from the lakeside, this spot is a must-visit in Ooty for relaxation and natural beauty.
