Days that begin with breathtaking sunrise on beaches with sand like silk beneath your feet, sea painted in long smooth stokes of colours defined by time, sunsets filling the sky with magical wonder…calming sounds of sea and coolness of the breeze.

About Namaste Gokarna
In the mid-1980s, Om Beach was known as Dhoni Bail (boat ground), accessible only by a 6-kilometer trek. Many travelers, weary and hungry, would arrive at this secluded beach. It was here that a simple dal chawal stall emerged, where the owner served dishes made from his grandmother’s recipes, marking the dawn of Gokarna’s tourism. With the increase in visitors to the untouched beach, the need arose to name this eatery. During a conversation with a long-staying French tourist, the suggestion of ‘Namaste Cafe’ was made, extending a welcome to all guests. It was also this tourist who observed that the beach resembled the ‘Om’ symbol, leading to the transition of Dhoni Bail to the now-famous Om Beach, a name that resonated globally, especially among the predominantly international visitors of that era.
