Kudle Beach Sunset
A long, curving beach a short walk from the temple town, backed by palm groves — its west-facing shoreline makes it the most popular spot in Gokarna to watch the sun sink into the Arabian Sea.

An ancient Shiva temple at the heart of Gokarna town, said to house one of the most sacred Atmalinga relics in Hinduism — pilgrims have visited for over a thousand years, especially during Shivaratri.
