Byndoor, May 7, 2017: Dakshina Kannada’s  Someshwara Beach in Byndoor escaped the public glare all these years and only those well-versed with the region were aware of its presence.

Located on the foothills of Ottinene hillock in Byndoor, Someshwara is one of the safest beaches as visitors can venture into the sea for a longer distance than any other beach, thanks to the shallow waters of the Arabian Sea.  The beach, of late, has been receiving good number of tourists which increases during the weekends.
