Konkan coast beaches are known to be clean and Murudeshwar Beach happens to be one among the lot. The clean white sandy beach extends up to 2-3 km easily and offers a range of water activities. Activities involve speed boats, water scooters, parasailing, boating and even snorkelling near Netrani Island. At the north-end of the beach, there is a white beautiful temple. If you are walking on the beach during low-tide, do make it a point to visit this temple. The large Shiva statue by the shore is best viewed from this beach and the sunset will add a magical hue that works wonders for photography.The beach is also home to a small flea market and chaat centre. One can purchase clothes, souvenirs and little trinkets at a cheap rate. Street vendors also sell pretty mirrors and lamps made of shells and conches. The chaat centre offers local delicacies and regular chaat that are delicious. Similar to international destinations, if you’d like to dine in style, then there is a restaurant constructed over pillars that are embedded in the sand. This gives an illusion of a floating restaurant. This vegetarian restaurant may not serve the best food but is worth the experience.
