The beaches are pristine and hidden behind a frame of well-placed hillocks that trek enthusiasts are keen on trekking to hit the beaches. It is one of the hotspots for travelers, backpackers, beach bums and is a perfect weekend family getaway because of its unspoiled and rustic nature.

The Gokarna main beach is in town and Kudle beach is west facing. Om beach, Half-moon Beach,
Paradise Beach (also known as the Full moon) and Belekan beach are south facing. The Gokarna beach forms the coast of the town and is followed by the Main beach in northern direction while the other four beaches lie to the south. The town is popular among Hindu pilgrims as Gokarna has one of the few Shiva's holy temples with what is claimed to be an original image of the god. Journey starts from Gokarna beach itself. Among the other beaches, Kudle beach is the most well-known and popular one. The trekker will get to trek up and down through the rocky beaches like Kudle beach, Paradise beach, Om beach, Half-moon beach, a desert beach called the Nirvana Beach and more.
