Overview
Everybody planning a trip to Murdeshwar keeps talking about the temple and one of the tallest Shiva statues there. But the adventurous spirit in you is not satisfied, it seeks something more. What if you are told that you can sneak into the serenity of the underwater world, and explore species known and unknown? When you go Gokarna with Murdeshwar, you are welcomed to one of the best scuba diving experiences in India at Netrani Island. This Heart-Shaped Island is situated just 19 km off the coast of Murdeshwar and is quite a delightful place for underwater adventures. Enjoy the feeling of being weightless, as you wander through sparkling blue waters lined by silvery sand. Do not hesitate to dive, as the insurmountable beauty that waits at Murudeshwar may change the way you look at the world (Much ZNMD vibes!)
A well-known peninsula on the border of Karnataka, Gokarna with Murdeshwar is a classic example of the perfect kinda blend-coasts, enlivening water sports, exotic landscapes clubbed with the hippie madness.
