Kasaragod  

Kasargod is 14 kms from bekal. The bus from Bangalore dropped us here. We decided to explore the area a bit before heading towards bekal. The only place was the kasargod beach. You can take an auto from the bus station and reach here. the best thing about the transport is that you don't have to haggle about the price. the auto wallahs charge you Rs 15 per km. They also have a govt. chart for shorter routes that you can check before you pay. The beach is clean and non commercialized.
