Are you someone who loves green misty mountains as well as pristine beaches!? Or confused about choosing between mountains and beaches!? Then fret not, we have got this covered!! Here is the destination where you can take a dip in the sea as well as climb lofty hillocks!

I’m sure you’ve guessed the place by now! Yes, we are talking about Gokarna.

The small sleepy town of Karnataka, Gokarna has its coastline fringed with some of the most captivating, appealing beaches, and strolling through them will leave you feeling refreshed and energized. Gokarna is one such town that lets you experience the best of both worlds, be it beaches or mountains.

The delight of trekking combined with the phenomenal views of the Arabian Sea on one side and rocky hills on the other gives you a unique and unusual experience at a whole new level.

Gokarna has 4 main beaches and all connected, which can be trekked and explored allowing you to enjoy the cool breeze and meander from one beach to another.

Watching the surreal orange sunset, meandering through the white sandy beaches and hearing the sound of the waves, soaking your feet in clear blue water that is spread infinitely, are a few of the many beautiful things that you can experience here.

Not to forget, the city of Gokarna holds a few ancient and historical temples that are dated back to the 4th century. One of the primary things to do in Gokarna is to visit the holy and sublime Mahabaleshwara Temple, a masterpiece exhibiting the brilliance of Dravidian architecture.

Last but not least, if you move slightly towards the south of Gokarna, you will come across a less known “Apsarakonda falls”. The name“ Apsarakonda” which means “pond of angels” in the local language, has a saying that the angels used to fly down and take bath here and hence the name.

So, what are you waiting for? Just pack your bags and tighten your shoelaces, let us hit the road to experience this adventurous, fun-filled experience.
