Gokarna Tour Package From Chennai 2 Days & 1 Nights

You won’t actually be setting foot in Gokarna immediately at the start of this tour, as we arrive in Goa first. From there, it is a long drive that will take you to Gokarna, the destination that you are so eager to start exploring. And explore it you shall. Once we touch down in Gokarna, check into a hotel and drop off the bags that we’ve been carrying with us, we’re off and running on a tour around the town and its many attractions.

No tour to Gokarna can truly commence without visiting what is easily its most prestigious landmark. There is so much culture, so much importance and so much legend wrapped up in the walls of the Mahabaleshwar Temple, as well as Kotitirtha beside it.

After you’ve visited the monument that spawned this legend, take a rejuvenating walk along the beach that it faces. This beach is the Gokarna Main Beach. The first one of the beaches is Kudle Beach. As impressive as any beach anywhere in the world, Kudle Beach also gives you access to the Shiva Cave. While the cave itself is inhabited by bats due to how dark it is, requiring the use of a flashlight to navigate, what makes it stand out from the crowd is a little section of it that is separated from the rest of the cave by a wooden door. Behind this door is a room-like space, within which lies a Shivalinga. Light pours into this room through a hole in the ceiling, making it an ideal spot for meditation.

Continuing southwards from Kudle Beach you will finally reach Om Beach, which gives you access to a wonderful elevated spot from which you can see the beautiful rocks formed by the sea below. In addition to that, there are many activities you could try out at Om Beach, such as fishing, riding in a banana boat, experiencing the thrill of skimming along the sea on a speed boat or jet ski, even spotting some dolphins. As you travel further along the periphery of this terrain, you will arrive at Half Moon Beach, following a short trek through the hills. Continue along the border towards the Gokarna Lighthouse. Later, return to our hotel in Gokarna and stay there overnight.

he previous day’s escapades are sure to have taken a lot of energy to get through, so the start of your second day here takes place with breakfast, a heavy one. It will help you not only in your recovery from the previous day’s adventures but also for the brief excursion that lies ahead of you on this day. The town of Murudeshwar lies to the south of Gokarna, a long but reasonable drive away. The significance of this temple is the way it ties into the story of the Mahabaleshwar Temple's establishment.

The Shiva Statue that been built here is the second tallest of the God of destruction in India. The tower of the Murudeshwar Temple itself is, in fact, the tallest of its kind in the country. This entire monument has been established on top of the Kanduka Hill, a picturesque formation of land that is enveloped by the Arabian Sea from three directions, with park built around it. At the foot of this hill, lining the vast sea, is the Murudeshwar Beach, a lovely stretch of sand that further enhances the beauty of this town.

On that wonderful note, the tour ends as we prepare for departure, with a well-rounded understanding of the culture of these coastal towns.
