Another question what often people keep asking is whether the Island is accessible by road. Yes, Munroe Island is well connected to the mainland by a bridge and completely accessible by road. However, hiring a taxi or rickshaw(tuk tuk) could get expensive as there aren’t any Uber or Ola services available within Kollam or Munroe Island. I have made a list of ongoing taxi and rickshaw(tuk-tuk) fares from different major locations. You can also hire a car or two-wheeler from the main city like Cochin, Trivandrum, Kollam and Varkala, etc.
