The beauty of the beach is simply stunning! The path that winds its way around the Mangteshwara temple and through the rocks is a must-see. The view from the top is absolutely breathtaking and will leave you in awe.

The sandy shoreline is nestled within the confines of the quaint village, offering a secluded spot to soak up the sun's rays. The beach is petite in size, but its intimate atmosphere is perfect for a peaceful escape. The local fishermen frequent this area, adding to its authentic charm. However, it is important to note that this beach is not recommended for swimming due to its location and currents.

Wow, what an incredible experience it was to make my way towards the beach, with the ocean beckoning me from afar. I had the pleasure of crossing a stream that was chest-deep, and the local children were there to keep me company. It was a truly unique experience that I will never forget.
