Someshwara Beach, Byndoor
ಸೋಮೇಶ್ವರ ಬೀಚ್
A bay where rocks, beach, and river mouth meet, with Ottinenne Hill beside it as a viewpoint for watching the sunset.
Someshwara Beach is located in Byndoor, about 75 km north of Udupi. By the sea stand an ancient small Shiva temple and a cluster of rocks. Nearby Ottinenne Hill offers views over the bay, the river mouth, and the coastline, and it is a popular spot for watching the sunset along the northern stretch of the coastal highway. The beach is quiet, and the waves are too strong for swimming. Admission is free. It can be combined with Maravanthe and Gokarna's Gokarna Mookambika Temple in a northern day trip.
