Introducing Mangalore
Situated at the point where the Netravati and Gurupur Rivers flow into the Arabian Sea, Managlore has been a pit stop on international trade routes since the 6th century AD. It was the major port of Hyder Ali’s kingdom, and today the region’s coffee and cashew crops are still shipped out from the modern port, which is 10km north of the city.

Not an especially picturesque place, Mangalore is the largest city on Karnataka’s coast, and therefore is a useful place to stop for amenities. It’s not without its tourist charms, however, chief of which is quiet Ullal Beach, 12km south of the city.
