Mangalore trip planner

A gateway to the coastal region, Mangalore has long served as a stop-off point on maritime trade routes, and remains a major port city today. Despite its status as one of India's fastest-growing cities, Mangalore's tourism tends to focus on the least built-up spots. Most visitors flock to the quiet and relatively unknown beaches, where atmospheric seafood shacks serve local, spicy delicacies along the stretches of sand. Mangalore is in Dakshina Kannada District.
