Achieve Spiritual Bliss At Gokarna
He ancient town Gokarna is famous for its temples and beaches. With its narrow streets, traditional houses and temples, this unassuming town has become the favorite haunt for pilgrims, Sanskrit scholars and beach buffs.
Locally, it is believed that Gokarna derives its name from a legend in which Lord Shiva emerged from the ear of a cow. Literally meaning ‘cow's ear’, this village is formed by the ear-shaped confluence of two rivers.
Om Beach, one of Gokarna's five acclaimed beaches, takes the shape of an 'Om', the spiritual Hindu symbol. If you don’t want to confine yourself just to the Om Beach, there are the other beaches, wedged between cliffs, which are Gokarna, Kudle, Half Moon and Paradise Beach. The drive up the winding path that leads to Gokarna is a scenic delight with the rocky Western Ghats on one side and the Arabian Sea on the other.

Dream come true of staying on hill top tree house, it was all together a ‘Out of World Experience’. The tree house is wonderful. The food was deliciously simple and less spicy. Although there was a little delay in serving sometimes, but served the food really hot. We thoroughly enjoyed adventure activities such as Rafting, Jungle safari & Trekking. We recommend that everyone should experience it once in their lifetime.
