About The Trip
Located just 186 km from Goa, Honnavar port town stands different in style, culture, and history. While Goa is commercialised and sees tourists flocking from all directions, Honnavar still boasts of traditions sprinkled all over it. It is a quaint town with immense history, varied landscapes, rich culture, and simplicity. On this Honnavar Exploration Trip, you will go on a guided tour to Areca Farm, walk in the Mangrove forest, sightsee Colonel Hill, dip in the beaches, watch the sunset in the backwaters and walk on the Hanging Bridge.
Lying on the bank of the Arabian Sea, this town has attracted and absorbed the culture of different people from countries like Portugal, England and the Netherlands that came here for trade. Apart from the human impact, the natural setting of Mangrove Forest sets the town apart. You will also get to see the Konkan Railway line passing through it.
The town lies at a phenomenal location that forms an estuary: the Arabian Sea at the west and Sharavati River at the south. Agriculture and fishery are evergreen contributors to the economy. Although the Roof Tile industry is declining, it still prospers with beekeeping and Cashew nut processing.
With that being said, this port town is a must-see for it holds so many opportunities for the future. Plan the Unplanned has a particular interest in this port town and would like you to see and experience the same. Read the complete itinerary of the Honnavar Exploration trip for the comprehensive plan and book your tickets at the earliest.

An overnight bus journey of 450 km commences from Bangalore to Honnavar. We shall have a brief orientation followed by a fun-filled ice-breaking session where you will get to know your fellow trippers better.
Details
Begin your day with a hearty breakfast at the accommodation, setting the tone for a day of natural and cultural exploration. Your first stop will be the Bangara Kusuma Falls, a mesmerizing waterfall nestled in the lush greenery of Honnavar. En route, you'll also encounter two smaller waterfalls, each offering their unique charm and picturesque views.
Enjoy a packed lunch amid nature before heading to the ancient Jain Basadi. This historic site, set amidst a serene jungle, offers a short yet enriching jungle walk, providing glimpses into the region's spiritual heritage.
Next, visit the Sharavati Hanging Bridge, a marvel of engineering that spans the Sharavati River. Here, you have the option to enjoy a peaceful 10-minute boating experience (paid separately). As the day winds down, ascend to the Karikana Parameshwari Temple, perched atop a hill, to witness a breathtaking sunset that paints the sky in hues of gold and crimson.

Fill your tummies with lunch (self-sponsored) as you gear up for the rest of the day. We will spend our afternoon at Eco Beach. You can sit here, relax in shacks or dip in the water. There are separate changing and bathing areas for males and females. You can take a shower, wash off the sand and wear spare clothes. Do all this before sunset because the star of the menu is yet to be explored. You must have seen many sunsets, but witnessing this one on the backwaters of river Sharavati on a boat is a dream.
By 7:30 pm, we will conclude the Honnavar Exploration trip, pack up and depart. The best part is you will make friends for a lifetime.
