Places to Visit in Gokarna
The quaint town of Gokarna, which was once famous for its holy temples and pilgrimage sites, is now known for its serene beauty and vividness. So, if you’re pondering about planning a trip to Gokarna, here are some of the best things to do for you.
Mahabaleshwara Temple
Among the list of many places to visit in Gokarna, the Mahabaleshwar Temple is one of the places you must add to your travel itinerary. The Dravidian architecture of the temple is the main attraction that drives many tourists to the temple. The Mahabaleshwara Temple houses a 1,500-year-old Shiva Linga, which holds huge religious significance. The temple is even featured in epic Hindu mythologies, such as Ramayana and Mahabharata.
Gokarna Beach
Near the Mahabaleshwar Temple is one of the most famous beaches of Gokarna, which is Gokarna Beach. The Gokarna Beach is probably the longest in Gokarna, which is frequented by tourists and pilgrims alike due to its vicinity of the Mahabaleshwara Temple. To reach the beach, you can either rent an auto or a taxi or hire a scooter or a bike, which charge a minimal price. The Gokarna Beach is home to several campers, shacks and eateries where you can sit, eat and relax.
Om Beach
Om Beach is another sightseeing place in Gokarna that you cannot miss out on. The beach is called ‘Om Beach’ due to two semi-crescents resembling the spiritual symbol ‘Om’. If you are an adventure enthusiast, you can enjoy various water activities around the beach, which include banana rides, jet skiing, bumper boat rides, speed boating and much more. You can even enjoy fishing or dolphin spotting at Om Beach.
Half Moon Beach
Considered one of the famous beaches in Gokarna, Half Moon Beach is another beach destination you cannot miss out on. Although boat services are always available at varied costs to take you to Half Moon Beach, you can even choose to trek from Om Beach. The beach is set in picturesque surroundings and has got the name due to its half-moon formation. Some of the most popular activities you can enjoy while at Half Moon Beach are canoeing, paintball, paddle boating, camping, and so much more. The best time to plan a visit to the beach is from autumn to summer, which is between October and March.
Kudle Beach
Located just a few distances from Om Beach is another beach destination, which is Kudle Beach. The beach is covered by a long stretch of coconut trees, which adds to the beauty of the destination. Kudle Beach is not accessible via road directly, but you can take a downhill trek from the parking area to reach the beautiful Kudle Beach. The beach is lined with numerous shacks where you can relax and enjoy the scenic surroundings. If you are looking for budget-friendly accommodation in Gokarna, Kudle Beach has several hotels which you can check out.
Paradise Beach
Paradise Beach is another popular beach in Gokarna that lies at the end if you start beach hopping from Gokarna Beach. Paradise Beach is a south-facing beach which is adorned with rocky and sandy patches in between, along with blue water gushing along the shores. The beach is also known as ‘full moon beach’ as the shape of the beach is formed that way. There are beautiful accommodation options near the beach, which serve delicious local food.
Yana Caves
Gokarna is not about its pristine and crystal clear waters but also for its sightseeing destinations. The Yana Caves is one such place that will take you back to the bygone era. Yana Caves is another tourist destination that is famed for holding two gigantic limestone monoliths that attract tourists every year. According to the locals, the two peaks at the Yana Caves represent Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, respectively. The place is also an excellent place for bird watching, as many migratory birds frequent Yana Caves during the changing seasons.
Mirjan Fort
Known for its triumphant history, Mirjan Fort was built in the 16th century and is known to hold the cultural glory of Karnataka. The fort is situated on the banks of the Agnanishi River, with lush greenery surrounding the place. Upon visiting Mirjan Fort, you will notice that the architecture of the fort is a mix of Deccan and Mughal architectural elements. The Mirjan Fort has seen many battles in the past, which adds to the cultural relevance of the fort.
Best Time to Visit Gokarna
To savour the serene bliss of Gokarna, the best time to visit is from autumn to summer, which is between October and March. To avoid bad climatic conditions and peak crowd seasons, the period between October and March is suitable for you to book your Gokarna travel package. If you are coming on a honeymoon, the winter season is the perfect time for you to book a Gokarna honeymoon package. Summer months are not ideal as the climate becomes too hot to chill at the beaches or even visit the various temples and sightseeing places in Gokarna.
