Gokarna is famous in India for its Mahabaleshwar temple, which attracts large numbers of Hindu pilgrims. But travelers come to the town for a very different reason: its pristine, almost deserted beaches, just a few kilometers away. Less popular than Goa and its neighbouring beaches, Gokarna has developed over time, welcoming hippies in search of tranquillity. From a few bamboo beach huts at the outset, the resort has become increasingly gentrified, with new resorts with swimming pools and permanent bungalows springing up on a regular basis. On the way to becoming a new Varkala, with its beach bars, this is the place to go to enjoy nature that's still almost untouched. Om Beach and Kuddle Beach can be reached by auto-rickshaw, but you'll have to be brave and go down a large hill to reach Half Moon Beach and Paradise Beach, two less-frequented beaches.
