While zooming out on Google Earth during my journey from Goa to Kundapur, I stumbled upon this place and decided to visit. I'm so glad we did! This beautiful black sand beach has sand that looks just like sesame seeds, which is how it got its name in Hindi. The trek from the base to the beach is about 800 meters through rocky terrain, so I highly recommend wearing good shoes, which we unfortunately forgot. The beach itself is quite deep, so it's best to avoid venturing into the deeper waters. For those unfamiliar with the area, I suggest visiting in the morning or in groups, as the place is somewhat isolated and help may not be readily available in case of an emergency. Avoid following Google Maps routes that lead to a location marked as parking, as the roads are narrow and parking is limited to just two cars. Instead, take some time to find a suitable parking spot and avoid driving too close to the beach. This well-preserved beach deserves to be kept clean, so please refrain from littering and cherish the natural beauty.
