Road trip to Surathkal Beach, near Mangalore, Karnataka
Surathkal Beach on the shores of Arabian Sea, is a clean beach with wonderful scenic beauty. The view of the sunset is a photographer's delight. This beach boasts a curving shoreline and offers the kind of serenity that people travel across the world for. It is 19 kms from Mengaluru Railway Station and is one of the most popular beaches near Mangalore.
The historical Sadashiva Temple near the beach is an added attraction. According to mythology, when Lord Ganesha kept Ravana's Shivalinga on the ground, Ravana tried to pick it up with force and some pieces got scattered. One such piece from the linga is said to have fallen in Surathkal.
There is a light house near the Sadashiva Temple, located on a small hillock. Surathkal is famous for National Institute of Technology Karnataka (NITK).
When in Surathkal, drive/ ride to Astha Matha established by Saint Madhwacharya. This Matha has intricate trellis work.
One of the oldest parishes in Surathkal, Sacred Heart Church is worth a visit too.
Sasihitulu village is 5 km from Surathkal. The Pavanje River flows into the Arabian Sea forming an estuary. The view from the cliff is simply spectacular.
Moodbidri, which is about 20 km from Surathkal was the centre of Jainism since the 15th century. The Jain temples in Moodbidri are very well maintained.
