The sight of sea would always fascinate the young and the old alike. And when a fleet of boats passes under the Scherzer’s span of Pamban rail bridge, it becomes a rare sight for tourists. This is exactly what scores of tourists and pilgrims who were crossing Pamban road bridge were lucky enough to witness on Wednesday afternoon.

A fleet of around 60 boats from Nagapattinam that had trickled in and anchored in Pamban since Tuesday morning started to cross from the Palk Bay towards Cochin through the Gulf of Mannar.
