First
trip of the year and as most of the time, one more unplanned long drive! After
long time we 4 (Seena, Manju, Mahesh & Me) grouped up again and planned for
some long drive.
This
time we thought of spending time around some beach side and headed towards
Mangaluru. Mangaluru is around 350 KMS from Bengaluru, after shiradi ghat reconstructed
definitely you will love to drive through this road.
After
spending some time in Mangaluru we headed towards Malpe Beach and thought of
visiting St. Mary’s Islands. Malpe is around 60 Kms from Mangaluru. After
seeing the weekend crowd at Malpe beach we dropped our plan to visit St. Mary’s
island and headed towards Kapu Beach.
The
small town of Kapu is located very close to Udupi (around 12 Kms from Udupi). Kapu
beach is around 40 Kms from Mangaluru and 20 Kms from Malpe.
The
main attraction of Kapu beach is the light house located on this public beach. The
lighthouse was built by the British in 1901.
Different views from Light house.
Sunset @ Kapu Beach
It was wonderful time which we spent at this place, only disappointing thing is even this time we could not get a chance to climb the light house.
Over all it was nice drive and witnessed another awesome sunet :)
