A small hilltop overlook with sweeping views over Mangaluru's coastal plains, river mouth and distant Arabian Sea — great for sunrise/sunset, cloudscapes and layered foregrounds of palms and terraced scrub. Visit at golden hour (sunrise for softer light and fewer people). Accessible by car on a short uphill road; limited informal parking. Monsoon brings dramatic clouds but slippery paths. Respect local customs and avoid drone use without permission.
