Om beach Sunset from fort
This time we decided to go to Om beach,Gokarna. We left early morning in a tempo traveler, we were nearly 13 people in our list. First we reached Maravanthe beach,stopped for a while and clicked few snaps there. We didn't step into the water since the Maravanthe beach is known to be one of the dangerous beach. We moved towards Igdagunji temple and bowed to Lord Ganesha and took his blessings. When we reached Gokarna it was noon already, we went inside the temple and bowed to Lord Shiva. We touched atmalinga too. We had the lunch in one of poojari's house and moved towards Om beach. The road to reach the beach was not good and the wonderful thing was we have to climb the hill to reach the beach. It was 2.00pm already when we reached Om beach and it was hot too. So we stepped into the water and played in water and few people played volleyball too. The beach was crowded by foreign people. After we had a enough time pass we thought of move back. We went to see one more beach in Gokarna called paradise beach(also known as naked beach ;))
We left Gokarna and later reached Kumta. There we went to see Apsara konda falls. It was end of the season when we had gone for this picnic and falls was not in a good mood to show its real beauty.

There is a old fort and from there we could see the beach too. We were there for few hours to see the sunset. After sun settled we continued our journey and thought of having evening snacks,as one of our friend was known to that place he suggested us to have benne dose(butter dosa). and it was really tasty.
