Malpe - The Wonderful Beach of Karnataka

We reached the resort at 12.30. Finished lunch and checked in to room and came to the beach around 2.30. It was bit hot even in January, but a nice breeze was compensating the temperature. Beach was bit crowded and many tourists, school students, families came to the beach to enjoy the day. There is dedicated parking area for car, bus and all. There are change rooms in the beach as well. So, anyone can just come to the beach, enjoy and go back.

We spend some time in the beach. There are several water activities, horse riding, camel riding available on the beach. Me and my son went for the horse ride. After spending around 2 hrs we came to resort.

In the evening we went see the sunset and it was lucky to see an spectacular sunset.

After that we gone for the walk and I could see the development happened in the area. There are many shops, food stalls, new resorts are available. We went to a small but nice cafe for the tea and snacks.

Came back to resort. Had dinner and done for the day.

Next day after breakfast we again went to the sea. It was Sunday morning and there were good crowed already there. We have spent sometime there and then came back resort for local sightseeing.
