As you drive up north along the coastal road
to Maravanthe , 50 Kms from Udupi, a surprise awaits you. The highway bordered on either side by the Arabian sea and the Souparnika river, with a backdrop of the Kodachadri Hills, makes a drive an out-of-end-world experience. And at sunset a crimson sky & golden rays reflected both in the sea and river convert Maravanthe into a fairyland of scenic beauty. A drive further up will take you to the Belakal Teertha falls near Baindur.
