Gokarna, which means the cow’s ear, is a holy site located on the Karavali Coast nestled between the rivers of Agnashini and the Gangavali. The center is known for housing the famous Shiva Temple where the ‘Aatmalinga’ is located. It is believed that Aatmalinga of Lord Shiva is in the shape of a cow’s ear, thus giving rise to the name, Gokarna. Gokarna is hailed as one of the seven ‘Muktistalas’ or pilgrimage centers of the state of Karnataka in India.
The Town is located in the northern-coastal region of Karnataka which is about 518 KMs from Bangalore. It is not as fancy as Goa but this is the place where people all over the world come for peace for culture, for temples and of course for the beautiful beaches. It is one of India’s most secluded and pristine beaches nestled nearby. The place draws both pious pilgrims and hedonistic holiday makers with equal enthusiasm.
Gokarna experiences the southwest monsoon from June to August, following which the weather becomes dry and sunny. The best time to visit Gokarna is from October until March when the weather is warm and pleasant. An overnight journey for Gokarna Beach Trek makes it more convenient and perfect weekend getaway.
