A low-lying riverine village on the Netravati estuary where colorful fishing boats, mangrove-lined banks and the river-mouth meet Arabian Sea light. Photograph boat portraits, reflections, tidal channels and local riverside life. Best at sunrise and golden hour for soft, warm light; monsoon brings dramatic skies and higher river flow. Easily reached by road from Mangaluru (short drive); street parking is limited near the bank — use a compact car and walk; dress respectfully around fishing homes.
