Gokarna is a small town in Karnataka, primarily known for two reasons - its beaches and temples. Gokarna can be different things to different people. Every year hordes of tourists visit Gokarna in search of sanctity and salvation on one hand, respite and relaxation on the other. The out-of-town beaches are a curious contrast to the life inside the town. Palm clad beaches are dotted with foreign tourists in majority and very few Indians are seen across. Gokarna is not very conventionally touristy. The beaches are meant for a slow, relaxed holiday and everything on the beach goes at the same relaxed pace. Full of coconut and palm trees, the ocean and clean sands, Gokarna is a 'one of its kind place' in the country.

Situated on the Konkan Coastline of India, the small town of Gokarna lies in the Uttara Kannada District of Karnataka. The place is well known for its long, beautiful and clean beaches, charming sunsets, and distant horizon with hues playing in the sky coloring it with enchanting shades. A beauty that remained undiscovered for all this while. The rustic nature and the laid back beaches have made it popular amongst the young generations. With an array of coconut and banana trees, clear sands and blue sea, Gokarna is a paradise for all beach lovers.
