Reached the beach after almost an hour long trek in the forest covering the beach.

The most famous & happening beach of the town.

Walking back to the hostel via the scenic coastal road & enjoyed the sunset from one of the cliffs on-route.

Day 3

Took almost 2 hrs to reach here from the hostel due to bad road conditions & traffic on the way up the mountainous road. The place has not much to offer & can definitely be avoided.

Not very far from Yana Rocks, this waterfall compensated for our disappointment with Yana Rocks. A dip in the clear water of the Vibhooti Falls is a must.

Day 4

Started a midnight trek from Belkan Beach to the Paradise Beach which is known for its glowing waters due to the presence of phytoplanktons.

Its the main beach of the holy town of Gokarna. Everything from temples to market to bus depot are just a walking distance from here.
