Description

Beaches are tranquil and serene, making them the perfect retreat to enjoy the soothing sound of the waves and the warmth of the sun. While many associate beach lovers with tourists, Gokarna Beach Trek is here to redefine that idea. 

Gokarna Beach Trek is a dream destination for travelers with miles of golden sand beaches, jagged cliffs, spectacular sunset views, hidden coves, and ancient temples. The long stretches of Om Beach and Kudle Beach are a haven for every beach lover. 

We arrive at Gokarna’s main beach during the golden hour to soak in the beauty of the Arabian Sea and the seemingly endless horizon. After freshening up, we head to Belekan Beach, from where our trek begins. The trek takes us through Paradise Beach (also known as Full Moon Beach), a pristine and surreal beach. Since the only way to access this beach is either by trekking or boat, it instantly becomes a trekkers’ paradise. 

Our next stop is Half Moon Beach. If you’re the adventurous type who loves to stand on the edge of a cliff or simply relax on a hammock, this is the place for you. As the trek continues, the sun begins to set, and we reach Om Beach, which offers a sunset that is truly unforgettable. For food lovers, Kudle Beach offers a fantastic selection of seafood, popular with both locals and international tourists. As the day winds down, we conclude our trek at the Main Beach.
