Kapu Beach & Lighthouse

Kapu Beach and Lighthouse, 12 km from Udupi, is one of Karnataka's most beautiful and serene beaches — a wide, uncrowded stretch of golden sand dominated by an elegant 19th-century lighthouse perched on a rocky promontory. Climbing the lighthouse offers panoramic coastal views. The clean beach, moderate waves, and photogenic lighthouse make Kapu a top Udupi photography and romantic destination. One of the most underrated beaches on the Karnataka coast. Free entry to beach; lighthouse fee applies.
