Devbagh beach resort

Devbagh beach resort is the destination, perched in karwar it is just 8 kms off the goa border.







Kodibagh jetty

the view


The view from the island, far across is the bridge we sail through.









the jungle

Thanks to the rains the previous nights, the walk through the forests to the huts are a treat to the sore eyes.

the log huts and cottages in the middle of the jungle on the beachfront is where you stay.









the coast



the beach here is one of the finest, a real long coastline all to yourself, the occassional fishermen from the neighbouring fishing village are spotted at times.

the restaurant at the island where food is served through ur entire stay.









the crab print

little did the crab know that the sand flushed by it would create such a pattern.( i see a maple leaf in it)









the sunset



though it didn rain the first day, owing to a cloudy sky missed the sunset, yet saw the evening rays pouring from the sky in two discrete places(my best moment). it rained after that!

the drive back

We return to the mainland.









Tagore Beach
