The small temple town on the west coast by the shores of the Arabian Sea lying off the grid, Gokarna is where time slows down even now here and there. This place is steeped in religion and of course speaks of some amazing beaches, if one is looking to be away from the maddening crowd found in Goa ( Lets discover the magic of beaches of South Goa this summer, )then this is the place to be, the alternate fulfilling destination. This article is all about the beaches and the top two are: Om beach and Kudle beach. Happiness is seen in the form of hearing the crash of the waves and in the blanket of a million stars in the sky during the night while the beach shacks play out some soulful track way in the distance.
So in case you have a weekend to spare and are done with your fill of Goa, it’s time to look at Gokarna and discover the simplicity of Ganga Café or Om Café with the sand between ur toes 🙂
Here are my 10 alternate vibrant themed visuals to inspire a weekend to Gokarna to soak in the beach culture.

Beautiful pictures. Love the way you have captured the sunset and the water flow. What technique have you used ?
hi glad u liked , used long exposure for clicking
Beautiful photographs and I love the way you have captured the sunset and water flow. Can you share the technique used ?
hi , thx tht u liked .. i used long exposure to capture the water flow ... iso 100 , aperture 7 , shutter speed 1-5sec , use a 10 stop filter ... hope this helps
Fantastic colors. Waves and sunsets is something you can look on forever.
i truly agree with u
Wow..I have been making my own plans to visit Gokarna from so long. But because there is no directly connectivity from my home town, I have been putting it off. But now your pictures have inspired me even more to do the trip there as soon as possible. Stunning pictures, really
thank you Neha , am glad they could help u ... but i guess there is connectivity from most places .. where do u stay ?
Inviting post and tempting photos... Gokarna is a place to be added to the list,
so glad tht u liked the post :)
Its been a long while since I had been to Gokarna. I had been there quite a few times in the past. I am told its lost a lot of its charm. Maybe for Maha Shiva ratri for 2018

maybe on crowded days it gets a bit hassled .. on mahashivratri it will definitely be crowded
When is long exposure used and can it be done by using mobile cameras? These are very lovely photos, keep it up.
i guess i used somewhere between 5 - 15 sec , with a mobile camera i think u need to get the filters
Gokrana beaches are magical as your pics are depicting. I have been to Goa but have not explored this side.
hi , glad u liked them , u should look at Gokarna
Water is my birth element. Those waves are really beautiful and seems like a very peaceful and serene place to be. Great photos!
