Malpe Beach
ಮಲ್ಪೆ ಬೀಚ್
Udupi's liveliest golden beach, with a floating bridge, a sea walkway and water activities. It is also the pier for boats to St. Mary's Island.
Malpe Beach is about 6 km from downtown Udupi. Its wide sands draw the most visitors at sunset. In the dry season there are water activities such as speedboats, banana boats and a floating bridge. The sea walkway that extends from the north breakwater into the ocean is a photo hotspot, and the fishing harbor's fish market in the early morning is full of local life. Boats to St. Mary's Island leave from a nearby pier. The beach is free, but water activities are charged separately. Waves are large during the monsoon season, and swimming is strictly prohibited.
