Walk between the beaches

Main beach
2 more images

There are about 5 different beaches at the Gokarna area. It's a good idea to walk between them. Signs warned you not to walk between the beaches at night because muggings have occured. During the day it's not dangerous though.
At the town there is main beach. A very long beach. If you go over the hill on your left you'll get to Kudlee beach (20 minutes walk) from kudlee beach it's another 20 minutes walk to Om beach; This was as far as I went but you can go further to Half moon beach which is a 30 minute walk from Om beach and then there is also paradise beach (another 30 minute walk)

Gokarna town has a very nice vibe. Many pilgrims come here. It has a funny mix of hindoe pilgrims and hippies.
There are many souvenir stalls, which are a lot cheaper than in Goa and the hassle is less as well.
There are many smaller streets which are very nice to walk through.

The sunsets at Gokarna are absolutely amazing. I preferred the sunset at main beach because the sun sets in the middle of the ocean there.
